Results in a Hurry

SAAVED offers "rapid testing" to detect HIV. After twenty minutes you'll have your results. This test requires a simple oral swab and is 99.7% effective in detecting HIV. There's no such thing as a "false negative", so if a result shows up negative on this test, it's a guarantee you are HIV-free. If the rapid test indicates an individual is positive for HIV, a confirmatory test consisting of a simple blood draw will be used to determine if the rapid test results are accurate.
