Tuberculosis (autoimmune disease)

[kind2creatures]

More proof that autoimmune disease patients have chronic infections that
are not widely recognized; this time we are talking about TB!

This research further supports the need for serious efforts to lower the
total body burden of pathogens in all autoimmune diseases since 19% tested
positive to TB. Of course they may all well have other concurrent infections
with things like Chlamydia and CMV and even LYME too. No one has the
dollars to fully test for every possible infection, and thus affordable
non-toxic, out-patient, anti-infective therapies like ACS take a tremendous
importance. It is always nice if initially some IV UVB and Ozone can be given
to
really aggressively lower the burden but always know that long term use of
ACS and related
infection control nutrients are crucial, as the organism are usually never
completely eradicated, and when they return, exacerbations of the
autoimmune condition will follow.

This is the conclusion from this research - 19% test positive for TB.

Overall, 74 (19%) out of 393 subjects were TST-positive and 52 (13%) were
QFT-GIT-positive. Concordance between TST and QFT-GIT results was good
(87.7%): 13 were QFT-GIT-positive/TST-negative and 35
QFT-GIT-negative/TST-positive.

What the heck is ACS?

19 percent of people with autoimmune issues have TB?

I seriously doubt it. TB tests happen all the time. I have not seen a 19%
result. I have seen coutless patients iwth autoimmune issues.

If it were true the CDC would be doing backwards flips and have their panties all tied in knots getting everyone on anti TB drugs.


MMS can take the place of UVB and Ozone therapy.

I wonder how many of those test showed false positives. I've heard that this can be the case with TB tests.
