Is a urine test as effective as a blood test for chalmadya my partner tested slightly positive for chalmadya in a blood test

Test for different : Items. A positive blood test tells that a person was infected at one time, not necessarily infected at the time of the test. A urine test looks for the actual microorganism and if positive means that the person is currently infected.
