I'm a bit curious and a little concerned about the MPDAslide test. Is this test specifically for detecting malaria, or can it find other things too? And I'm also wondering, how exactly is this test carried out?

View allI'm really worried about typhoid and how it's passed between people. Can it be spread through kissing or other close contact? How likely is it to be transmitted from one person to another this way?
Typhoid fever is not considered a sexually transmitted disease. It is typically transmitted through the ingestion of food or water contaminated with the bacterium Salmonella typhi. However, close contact with an infected person can increase the risk of transmission. It is important to practice good hygiene, such as washing hands regularly and avoiding sharing utensils, to help prevent the spread of typhoid fever. If you suspect you have been exposed to typhoid fever, antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin can be prescribed for treatment.

I'm really worried about my friend. She's got these swollen lymph nodes in her neck and groin, and I keep coming across information online suggesting it could be HIV. That idea really freaks me out, but it also doesn't seem quite right. Is it possible these symptoms are just from something like a common cold?
yes it can be due to common cold also

I've been experiencing something strange and it's a bit concerning. Every evening around 5 o'clock, I start getting a fever, and it sticks around until about 9 o'clock. After that, I feel completely fine, only for it to happen again the next day. This has been going on for the past 15 days. I'm on antibiotics, but they don't seem to be helping. The blood test says I have typhoid, but I don't notice any other symptoms of it in myself. What should I do?
Follow proper antibiotic course and immunizing diet
