Interesting Microscopy finding

Here is another video pointing to what I am speaking about.
Unfortunately, motility was limited due to the blood drying, as this slide had been prepared about two hours prior to this.

Look closely at the portion extending from the right side. And watch it's position closely, you'll see it actively moving.

1000x I believe. I'd have to look. Its the greatest magnification I can get that still has a clear picture. Poor cell phone cam because my other camera was dead. I'll post more stuff as a I find it though.

The was a very recent youtube video by a doctor studying Lyme. He had put the red blood cells into a saline solution to keep it viable longer. I can't find it right now but it clearly showed the Lyme spirochete climbing in and out of the red blood cells. He said that basically they use the RBCs as transportation to move from one area of the body to another.

It would be great it this could be an actual test but it is still hit or miss. Finding a spirochete would be a positive but not finding one means nothing.

The other thing that has come up is that in Maryland there has been a high rate of malaria cases. None of the people infected had traveled out of the country or been in contact with anyone traveling out of the country. They can see the malaria parasite under a microscope, but the problem is that it is virtually indistinguishable from Babesia. So it is likely that the cases were a misdiagnosis.

I also have a microscope and have been thinking of looking at my blood. If I am able I will post it o people can see. In the mean time if I come across the other video that the doctor posted I'll post the link.
