Rapid Test for HIV gives super fast results
This is called the OraQuick Advance Rapid HIV-1/2 Antibody Test. It can provide results in 20 minutes using oral fluid. Significant benefits of the rapid HIV test for oral fluid include the following:
-
Providing quick results eliminates the need for people to return to get their results.
-
People who do not like needlesticks or are otherwise afraid of a blood test may decide to be tested.
-
If people know immediately that they are positive for the HIV virus, they can begin to receive treatment sooner and to take steps to prevent transmission of the virus.
