Hello    The values are higer than 1:80 suggesting positive for typhoid, there are many factors to consider like Widal is not confirmatory test The antibiotic might not have been completely effective Sample not collected properly
Next Steps
need to repeat test with cbc and then consult a doctor & need to start on fresh course of antibiotics
Health Tips
eat clean food& avoid street food even if it's tasty( contaminated food is generally the source of typhoid)
