Chlamydia NOT on certs???!?!?!?!

[Andy Mann]

Cheers for that post Sam,

I'm sure if anyone has any issues regarding the speed and accuracy of the MediLab results, even after reading what Sam has posted, then MediLab will be more than happy to answer them as I personally have found them to be extremely helpful and understanding.

Can I just clarify that emily82 is not me.

I was contacted a couple of days ago about this thread by a member of some kind of adult film association wanting details of whoever is going around with fake certs.

I have no idea, as I don't do b/g work.

Thanks!

The must have certs in USA are:

gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV all required to be done with the more advanced PCR-DNA test.

In Europe/UK, the top 3 are still, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV, done with the 3 month ELISA test system. (It is possible to get the PCR-DNA test in Europe, but it's only available in a few countries, and it is very expensive, and it takes a while for the results to be sent back, defeting the point of haveing the advantage of earlier results)

It is not a legal requirement, however it is sensible that people here usually also check for syphilis, as it comes standerd on most NHS + private clinics, performers should also be encouraged to get their jabs for Hep A+B, and be tested every 6 months for Hep C. (Hep C is a danger, but it is hard, not impossible, to pass via sexual intercourse, but is usually contracted via intravenous drug abuse, tattoos, and body peircing if the shop has been using unclean needles)
