Hello,
Thanks for the consult...

Brief answer,
Need not worry.

Detailed explanation,
1. You mentioned that you had done ELISA test on 8th week after possible risk exposure and the result is non reactive
2. Usually this test can be of good value after 1 month so you need not be worried
3. Even if had doubt in mind then kindly do ELISA test after 20 days or WESTERN BLOT test is confirmative after 6 weeks of risk exposure
