With your wobbly logic you would claim you are not HIV+, however you cannot be certain without testing for it, hence the wobbly nature of your logic.
How is it wobbly logic to say "I do not know if I'm HIV+ because I've never had a test" when it's an accurate statement (damn sight more accurate than claiming something is true when it's not been tested).
There is a huge difference between saying "I'm not likely to be infected" and what you've actually claimed which is "I've never been infected in the past 10 years"
