Oraquick Accuracy

I had an HIV risk event several years ago and have taken two Oraquick tests. Both times my results were negative. I was wondering how accurate are Oraquick results?

Thanks for the question. Since the test measures antibodies to HIV, it should remain positive for life. Sensitivity is high,but not 100 percent.
