no symptoms
In the earliest stage of an HIV infection the symptoms are identical to the flu, but once it enters the asymptomatic stage there are no symptoms until it becomes active again and the immune system begins to fail. That is why it is called the asymptomatic stage (i.e. without symptoms).
Median interval would be approximately 3-8 years.
