Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thank you for query. I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
Welcome back to health care magic.I have gone through the Western blot reports.
These are the tests to detect antibodies against different components of HIV virus like gag,envelope,pol antigens.
So the test does not detect any antibodies to any components of antigens of HIV 1& 2 virus.
It implies that the person is negative for antibodies to HIV 1&2 .
So the test is negative for HIV 1&2.
So you are free from HIV infection.You need not worry.Allay fears totally.
You can get back for any clarification.
Thank you
