  1. You may want to consider looking at this study conducted in 1999 on a small group of people. Proceedings National Academy of Sciences of USA http://www.pnas.org/content/96/26/15109.figures-only

    Levels returned to greater than 500 copies/ml (vl) within 6 to 15 days (median 10 days) and approached or exceeded pre-therapy levels in all patients within 21 days. From my reading of the study it seemed viral load increased approximately every 2.5 days. So if you start out at vl of 50 then 2.5 days later you would be at 100 and 2.5 days after that be at 200, then 400 after another 2.5 days and so forth. In other words the viral load doubles every 2.5 days until it reaches a point ( but in the tens of thousands or higher) that varies by individual. 

    In another study There were no instances of transmissions by seropositive subjects with undetectable viral loads or with serum HIV-1 RNA levels of less than 1500 viral load. .N Engl J Med 2000; 342:921-929 March 30, 2000.

    I read someone else that viral loads above 30,000 are good for breeding but of course the higher the better. Some it is always best to breed multiple times spaced out over time (like days). Gettting 5 loads in one night is not as good as getting one load a night over 5 nights

    I am not a medical professional so it is possible I have incorrectly interpreted something. I have included links to the studies for people to read on their own and draw their own conclusions. Also, maybe there is more current information I am not aware of.

    Happy breeding.
