If my viral load is deemed undetectable, does that mean the virus is untransmittable?
The CDC says “undetectable equals untransmittable” (or U=U) occurs after 6-12 months of being undetectable, though some experts say U=U may be true after about 4-6 months of being undetectable. This can only be determined by lab tests at this time.
