Hi. I’m one of the women that Dr. Borne talked about that seroconverted in 2015. As someone who tested negative regularly every 3 months since I was 16 i am actually able to pinpoint when the transmission was made from my husband to myself. And she needs to stop beating herself up about it. By the time she met us I was already positive but was still outside the window period of detection.
