How the test is done:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The test is taken with a capillary blood test, after which blood is collected and then placed on the test strip. After 20 minutes, the test result can be read. While waiting for the answer, we have time for conversation, counseling and questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early diagnosis is important<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is important to find out early if you have HIV because it provides the opportunity for better care and treatment. It also contributes to reduced spread of infection. With us, you can get tested for HIV easily, discreetly and free of charge. At our reception, experienced staff are on hand for conversations and support. Noaks Ark will never refuse anyone to get a HIV test, regardless of gender, age, level of risk behavior or whether the person belongs to a group more likely to get HIV or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our test<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We use rapid result tests, which means a finger-prick and you get your answer within 20 minutes. The tests we use – Abbot Determine HIV Early Detect<\/a> – are approved by the Swedish Medicines Agency and have the same reliability as the tests that are taken by drawing blood from a veinand analyzed in a laboratory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I take a test immediately after a risk? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The rapid result test we use reacts to antibodies against HIV, which in the vast majority of people can be detected between three and six weeks after infection. According to the Swedish healthcare system, there is a guidline of eight weeks. Because the body can need eight weeks to develope the antibodies, this time must have passed between the moment you exposed yourself for the risk and the test. This, for the greatest possible accuracy. (For laboratory-based combination tests the guidline is six weeks). We do not think that this should be interpreted as that you have to wait so long after the time of risk to get tested. We recommend early testing, even if you may need to take a supplemented test after the recommended period of time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
