HIV tests in 82???? An insurance requirement for a test [in 82] that wasn't invented until late 84 early 85?
I'm confused.
I was diagnosed with GRIDS in March 83 and the only 'test' was a cd4 count and presenting OI's. Blood stored in 83 was later confirmed HIV+ in 85 [after the test was invented] as part of the LAMS Cohort study that tested thousands of samples with the all new Elisa and Western Blot tests.
I shared a needle with a "get high buddy" & had the classic sereo-conversion event happen to me in '84? Treatd at a VA facility They DID keep some of my blood I tried to join the NY Air National Guard, at Westhampton NY I was in the first batch to be tested for GRIDS I tested + on weston blot and elisa tests I have never taken any HIV meds & feel okay the wife is also negative (she never shot dope? is my best guess) she is still - today I stil ahven't taken any meds- whatever
I am 26 and I'm born with HIV

There is a problem with the opening, It should say " Its been 25 Years, since the Manufacturing of HIV "
