 Adams furthermore claims: ''Given certain conditions, up to 50 percent of HIV positive may be false, wreaking havoc to the lives of those patients who are falsely rated  HIV positive.'' Adams refers to a group of persons who were vaccinated against HIV for research purposes and subsequently formed antibodies. Adams came to the  wrong conclusion HIV-tests were losing credibility.

 A HIV infection cannot be established only by an ELISA screening test, although the test statement is quite reliable. It is a screening test designed to detect potentially infected persons. The sensitivity of the ELISA test is given at 99.9%. This means that out of 1,000&nbsp;HIV positive test persons, 999&nbsp;will be correctly identified, while one will be diagnosed with a false negative result. The specificity is 99.8%. This means that out of 1,000&nbsp;test persons not HIV positive, 998 will receive a correct negative result and just&nbsp;2 a false positive result. A positive result in this test is never communicated to the tested person unless a second, more expensive and extensive Western Blot control test confirms the result. This control test has a specificity of about 99.9996%.<ref>Kleinman et al: False-Positive HIV-1 Test Results in a Low-Risk Screening Setting of Voluntary Blood Donation.

-The medical amateur Adams published a misinforming treatise on his site about about HIV (which was reprinted in Germany by the publisher [[Koop Verlag]]). He claims erroneously in it that: ''HIV vaccines cause 50 percent false positive rate in HIV tests'' and that todays HIV tests only test for antibodies for HIV.<ref>[http://www.naturalnews.com/029236_HIV_vaccine.html HIV vaccines cause 50 percent false positive rate in HIV tests], Mike Adams, Natural News 20.

 Adams claims furthermore that: ''In some circumstances, up to 50 percent of HIV positive are false, causing havoc with the lives of those patients who are falsely accused of being " HIV positive.''. Adams refers in this case to a group of persons who were vaccinated against HIV for research purposes and formed antibodies subsequently. Adams drew wrong conclusions, that HIV-test are losing credibility.
