May I know, in terms of detection (which I assume works by viral load), does that mean if I’ve just been exposed to a COVID-positive person, even if I take the ART test right away, it’s likely the results will not show I’m infected?
If so, how long should I wait (not in terms of beginning to quarantine) before taking an ART test assuming I’m suspicious I’ve infected, before the test is accurate/have reliable results?
