JC Virus DNA, PCR Questions

studies have shown that HIV can survive in syringes for up to six weeks, while hepatitis C can remain detectable for two months

If upto 24 hours, there is no vomiting and loose motion (enteritis, it means it dog has recovered from parvo infection.

Hi, dengue fever, also known as breakbone fever, is a mosquito-borne tropical disease caused by the dengue virus. Symptoms include fever, headache, muscle and joint pains, and a characteristic skin rash that is similar to measles. In a small proportion of cases, the disease develops into the life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever, resulting in bleeding, low levels of blood platelets and blood plasma leakage, or into dengue shock syndrome, where dangerously low blood pressure occurs. Dengue is transmitted by several species of mosquito within the genus aedes, principally a. Aegypti. The virus has five different types; infection with one type usually gives lifelong immunity to that type, but only short-term immunity to the others. Subsequent infection with a different type increases the risk of severe complications. As there is no commercially available vaccine, prevention is sought by reducing the habitat and the number of mosquitoes and limiting exposure to bites. Zika virus: hi, zika virus disease is caused by a virus transmitted by aedes mosquitoes. People with zika virus disease usually have symptoms that can include mild fever, skin rashes, conjunctivitis, muscle and joint pain, malaise or headache. These symptoms normally last for 2-7 days. There is no specific treatment or vaccine currently available. The best form of prevention is protection against mosquito bites. The virus is known to circulate in africa, the americas, asia and the pacific. Prevention mosquitoes and their breeding sites pose a significant risk factor for zika virus infection. Prevention and control relies on reducing mosquitoes through source reduction (removal and modification of breeding sites) and reducing contact between mosquitoes and people. This can be done by using insect repellent regularly; wearing clothes (preferably light-coloured) that cover as much of the body as possible; using physical barriers such as window screens, closed doors and windows; and if needed, additional personal protection, such as sleeping under mosquito nets during the day. It is extremely important to empty, clean or cover containers regularly that can store water, such as buckets, drums, pots etc. Other mosquito breeding sites should be cleaned or removed including flower pots, used tyres and roof gutters. Communities must support the efforts of the local government to reduce the density of mosquitoes in their locality.

You have to do the hiv test for confirmation after 3 months. It usually takes 3 months to come positive. It is called as window period.

Window period for ELISA n spot test is 90 days. For PCR it is 2 weeks. DNA 1 COPY MEANS NON DETECTION LEVEL.

No, that ll not help. PCR should be two weeks after exposure. Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and explain to you which test and when it is to be done.

Free from hiv.

If the partner is known to you then hiv testing is not mandatory. Hiv is test is done only for high risk behavior like multiple partners. Protected intercourse further reduces the chances of infection.

It is a test to identify the infection early. But to be safer side most of them advise conclusive test after 3 months of window periods.

After exposure with in 48 hrs and tested for HIV DNA PCR test after 30 days the test was "NEGATIVE" is conclusive The test is conclusive and you need not fear.
