Some facts about HIV/AIDS A negative test does not mean you are HIV-free. While you very well may be, it is possible that you are too early in the stage to test of the anti-HIV antibodies most tests look for. It is best to go back in six months to a year for a second test, just to be sure. There are some people who have a mutation in their body that prevents them from contracting HIV. However, this only accounts for 1% of the US population, so it's better not to take a chance. Early symptoms of HIV can include flu-like symptoms as well as skin-related diseases like thrush or shingles. Worldwide, there are 65 million cases on HIV/AIDS; 90% of these cases are in third world countries, and only 10% of the people infected know about it. In the US, we are already up to a million+ cases. Also in the US, 70% of cases are men, though worldwide, those affected are more or less 50/50 between men and women. AIDS is a huge problem not only in South Africa, but is rapidly growing in large countries like China, India and Russia.
