I had my blood work done today and asked my doctor to check for the bacteria. He'd never heard of it, but looked it up and confirmed the resistance to antibiotics. He said that it would not normally show up in the lab with my screening. Any one know how to trace it?
And that blindness is what will shoot them in the foot...
You cannot let such a cat out of the bag and not expect to get scratched!
As a complete aside... I saw a comment on your Agglutination Nation post Jack from Orage but as I am not a paid subscriber to your substack I couldn't respond. Well, Orage... see the below for information. The tracing of such bacteria is not part of standard testing, but is possible if you know the right questions to ask.

You'll be fine, we're not done yet.
