3) You can't eat or drink anything 30 minutes or less before the test. Or brush your teeth, use mouthwash, etc. If you do, you may get a false negative.
4) It may not show a result up to 3 months after infection.
5) If you're taking anti AIDS drugs, it may not test positive.
6) It's an oral swab test. It has to be done carefully, or the results may not be accurate. For instance, "you must swab both the left and right side of your upper gums and the left and right side of your lower gums. Each gum must be swabbed only once. You must follow the test directions carefully to get an accurate result"

So you're saying there's no value so don't do it at all?
