An HIV test of 0.09 means that you are HIV negative, which means that you do not have HIV. HIV testing can be done in a variety of ways, such as test strips, viral testing, and antibody kits. Antibody kits can only be performed during the window period of the AIDS virus. The window period of the fourth generation kits is 3-6 weeks, which means that the test can be performed at week 3, or if you want to be tested earlier, the virus test can be performed at about day 10. Antibody tests generally have a value between 0 and 1, which is negative, and greater than 1, which is positive, so an HIV test value of 0.09 is negative.
