Does Widal Test Really Diagnose Typhoid Or Is It Just A Sham. A by Iamdipson(m): 3:59am On Oct 09, 2021
I went to see a doctor recently,I told him I have been suffering from reoccurring Typhoid. No serious symptoms though, but each time I do a test, which is mostly MP and Widal, they say it's Typhoid. The doctor rubbished the claim that I have Typhoid and said if the test is carried out on 100 patients, the result will say almost all of them has Typhoid.

What exactly is Widal Test meant for and is it really the test meant to diagnose Typhoid ailment?

It's not even about testing 100 patients alone.
If you treat typhoid today, go test it tomorrow and you will still surprisingly have typhoid.
Africa needs to upgrade and stop using that manual widal reaction test (widal agglutination test). It's pure sham.

the test is actually true for typhoid,and it's very possible your system is resistant to the orthodox drugs or injection,typhoid is caused by salmonella typhi...contact me for your confirmed typhoid agbo...you'll never see it again
