Which HIV test is FDA approved?

@saidi In August 2013, the FDA approved Alere Determine HIV-1/2 Ag/Ab Combo test (Orgenics, Ltd) as the first rapid HIV test for the simultaneous detection of HIV-1 p24 antigen as well as antibodies to both HIV-1 and HIV-2 in human serum, plasma, and venous or fingerstick whole blood specimens. The test does not distinguish between antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2, and is not intended to be used for screening of blood donors.
