If i donate blood 5 years after successful treatment of early syphilis (currently vdrl is -ve, syphilis antibodies elisa test is +ve), will the healthy recipient get false positive result for syphilis antibodies elisa test after transfusion?

In your country it has been reported that .07% of blood donors have syphilis. You health history should be reported and blood screened before donating. No recent infectious diseases reported by you, than your blood donation should be approved. Stay safe and practice safe sex.
