Is the Typhoid result OK or Not?
Hi,
I am attaching a typhoid test result of my parent for a view. Please note that this test (widal test) is done around on the 7th day of regular fever phenomenon.
Does this indicate that the she has typhoid or does she not or should the test be re-done at a later point in time?
Thanks in advance.
