AIDS - Bad Science
August 17, 2010 Bad Science Over 70 conditions can lead to a [false] positive result in the Elisa test kit. Testing positive in this test could mean flu, malaria, tuberculosis, pregnancy, herpes, after-effects of hepatitis B and even tetanus vaccines. HIV is just one of possible results. It is globally known that the Elisa test is not a conclusive one to find out the HIV status. Yet government agencies use only Elisa to establish HIV positive results.
