Clamydia has the ability to lie dormant hiding in the digestive system despite its eradication elsewhere-disease control and prevention (cdc). true?

Controversial : Research has demonstrated that this is most likely possible in mice, and there are some researchers who suspect that it is also possible in humans. There has not been documented auto reinfection in humans.The most common cause of reinfection after a successful treatment is a second new infection. Good luck.
