How long does it take to know if you got aids?

Answer 1

There are two conditions you must meet. First is being positive for HIV infection, and you determine that through a blood test.

The second is having an "indicator disease" like Kaposi's sarcoma or pulmonary tuberculosis. If you are HIV positive without an indicator disease, you're just HIV positive. For instance, Magic Johnson is HIV positive, but he never developed an indicator disease so he doesn't have AIDS.

Answer 2

Depends on what test you take and how long ago exposure was. They have a new mouth swab screening that you will know in 20 minutes. If test is positive then they will do additional tests if it is negative it is negative.

Answer 3

After you have been diagnosed that you have HIV, you have it for the rest of your life.
