A member asked:
Is blood test for syphilis and herpes are accurate.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There is more than one test type for syphilis and both need to be done for accurate results. Herpes can generally be diagnosed with a single test. It may need to be repeated if the infection is too recent.
