Looks like if you EVER have syphilis in your entire life, you will ALWAYS test positive even though you no longer have it!
Holy shit.
How the fuck can that be accounted for then? Sounds like Markus is telling the truth if that is the case. And if so...then how would any test for syphilis be reliable?
If this is indeed the case, then it throws the whole idea of testing for syphilis in the toilet. |
Syphilis tests don't list as positive or negative, it lists a level of antibodies present. Someone that has been exposed and treated will have a very low number, someone more recently infected and untreated will have a much much higher number.
