>- You really want a 99% drop in hiv or a 99.9% drop or more.
I agree, but the real problem is none of the tests are actually measuring the actual real virus. They are using amplification techniques on parts of the virus.
Also, if you consider CD4 levels, the healthy body normally replaces about 1 percent of the CD-4 cells each day. With that low of a production rate, it would take weeks for an actual increase to show up.
