2 www.aids2014.org Alere™ HIV Combo- Rationale Acute infection accounts for 5-20% of all cases of HIV infection among person seeking testing. The seroconversion window period is associated with peak levels of viremia and high risk of transmission Earlier identification would: –Increase case finding –Facilitate earlier referral to care –Earlier Treatment –Partner Notification
