Original Note:
HIV tests look for antibodies/antigens/viral DNA, which makes them very specific. Those tests cannot assess the immune status of a person. Other test are needed to assess one's immune status. Also, immune status tests are a lot more expensive than the ones for HIV screening https://www.webmd.com/hiv-aids/hiv-aids-screening https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK230966/
