[pct-l] Catra's PCT experience turns me into a true believer   They took her
stool sample, which indicates a lab test, which usually provides accurate
proof.
   Besides, she battled it for almost 2 weeks.

   Was she actually tested for Giardia or was it just a doctors best guess?
   I see no proof of proof here.

OK...OK...to all the none believers,
Here it is in Catra's own words......''After checking into a medical
clinic....it's been confirmed I have giardia and
two other parasites....they said finish up the antibiotics and I should be
fine''.

How did she get it?....Who knows?.....Could be the water, could be casual
contact....it's a roll of the dice...50-50
chance I guess.

But the facts are, it is out there....those are the facts....they are
undeniable & indisputable.
The only question is to what extend?

The word "giardia" is thrown around too much.  Is this confirmed, or is it

Roughly one in 20 Americans are already infected before they start. (
between 4-7%)

So . Pretty good odds of contact. Remove hand washing...... and......
you get the picture
