Why should a person that takes an hiv test today also take one in 3 months?

A person may be infected with HIV, but not test positive. It will take time for the virus to spread throughout the body and therefore when they first get infected they will often yield a negative test result since the concentration in the body at that time is still very small.

After 3 months if a person tested negative the first time and negative the second time there is very little doubt on whether or not the patient has HIV. However, without the second test 3 months later a person who recently got infected before the original test would have shown a negative test result and actually had HIV.

You are starting to prepare a lot earlier than I even started thinking about haha. I mean, I got a 24 on my Mock ACT.
