Gay,mild Fever, Sore Throat. Had Anal Sex With HIV+ Person, Condom Broke. Chances Of Contracting HIV?

Hi, I am gay. I had anal sex with a man who is HIV+ but claims to be undetectable and has been taking his medication properly. During the act the condom broke and I must have been in action for about a minute.
Today (3 days later) I am feeling a mild fever and a sore throat.
What are the odds of contracting HIV?
Thank you so much doctor! I have never been so afraid and anxious in my entire life.

Hello,
thank you for using health care magic,
chances of getting HIV infection from anal sex is fair enough plus you condom got broken.. consult near by physician and take post exposure prophylaxis asap..
after about month you can take test like ELISA HIV 1 and 2.. or more confirmatory test like p24, PCR, ov viral load..
take care..
