Brief Answer:
Results are interpretated as negative.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query at HCM.
I understand your concern and situation.

Don't worry you are not contagious. The ratio threshold has to be greater than 1.525 and one value greater than 2.0 to call it positive. Your values are below. Your results will be interpreted as negative.


Hope I answered your query.
