Therefore, if the Western Blot is negative - would support HIV negative status. art At Wed, 10 Dec 2003, Dr. Ainsworth wrote: > >No ID specialists in this neck of the woods.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
