I don't know for sure but I don't think that results before the 3 month period are correct as the virus takes up to 3 months to show it's self.
SorryHealth Question & Answer

The initial test for HIV is designed to detect antibodies to HIV, and it takes time for the body to build up enough antibodies to test positive. More than 98% of people would test positive within 3 months. Most people would not take 3 months to test positive, but the standard recommendation is to get tested 3 months after your last possible exposure. In very rare cases, it could take up to 6 months for someone to test positive, but that would only happen if the person's immune system is damaged before they get HIV infection.Health Question & Answer
