General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

ECLIA is very accurate HIV test. It can pick up 95% of infections 28 days after exposure. You also did the test 3 months after the exposure and both results were negative so you have to be sure that you are not infected to HIV.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
