AB We report a false-positive result on an enzyme immunoassay screening
test for antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus in a 32-year-old
nonpregnant woman who belonged to none of the usual risk groups. Because
of the patient's employment in an animal care facility, she had received
a series of three vaccinations for rabies, and 16 days after the last
vaccination, she had donated a unit of blood. It was during routine
screening on a sample drawn at the time of donation that the repeatedly
reactive enzyme immunoassay screening test occurred. The results of a
Western blot were indeterminant. A polymerase chain reaction assay was
negative for proviral DNA.
