Guest guest Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Dear Forum, I visited ICTC Kumbakonam ( Tamilnadu)Government hospital on March 7th with two referrals from Lotus for HIV test. Hospital Counsellor told the test kits are not available and wont be available till the end of this month (March). Since we were asked to come in the first week of April. I also noticed few pregnant women who came to collect their results were asked to come and collect & nbsp;their results in the first week of April. I was given to understand that in the past few days blood samples were collected and since there was a delay in arrival of Kits the results were not provided and kept in pending. I have three questions How long & nbsp; a blood sample could be kept in pending for test. Would any variation occur in results when testing it after a month? Why there is a lack in Kits? is it the situations in other districts of Tamil nadu? Till April first week where do we refer the clients who get counselled in our community voluntary counselling centre (CVCC)?
