The Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) detects HIV antibodies in the blood (i.e. the reaction produced by your body in the presence of the virus). This test is very reliable and has excellent sensitivity and specificity (i.e. the risk of having a false negative or false positive is extremely low). Please note that for the TROD, we do not talk about "positive - negative" but "reactive - non-reactive".
In order to be carried out properly, the time between the test and the last exposure to the risk of being infected (the time of "risk-taking") must be at least 3 months. The TROD, if it is reactive ("positive"), must be confirmed by a blood test.
Some specialised associations and family planning centres offer a rapid screening service:
