Question—I’m not Covid-vaxxed but have had Lyme and babesia. Aftee antibiotics and antimalarials i tested negative for babesia. Babesia tests are supposedly more reliable than other Lyme tests. But I read anyone who has had babesia can never donate n blood—is this true? Is it rational? I would be glad to donate to an unvaxxed blood bank.

I knew a woman a few yrs ago who had Lyme for 20 yrs and had really suffered. She finally had just found a doctor who prescribed HCQ for her. She took it for 2 weeks and was tested - it came back absolutely negative for Lyme. H C Q kills the spirochetes which cause Lyme.
You can get H C Q from Frontline Doctors if you can't find a doctor to prescribe it. I think Ivermectin may also work. Here is a database which may have some good info on this:
If you can't find a dr to prescribe ivermectin, you can use the "horse paste" it IS perfectly safe for humans, husband and I have both used it several times. Husband was a virologist/immunologist for many years in Public Health Dept of PA. He has 55 yrs research behind him. You can get iver mectin at Tractor Supply by mail or at store or on Amazon. Look up dosages which are measured by a person's weight. If you have questions or need more info, reply to this message. This is NOT medical advice, I am not a doctor, just telling you what worked for a friend of mine.
Glad your friend got that treatment, I hope it helped? I have had Lyme since the early 1990s … took many years to get diagnosed and treated, and I never became completely symptom-free, but it improved. I have some human IVM around in case of Covid, unsure if I still have active Lyme or not, will look into the HCQ and IVM. Thanks!
Yes it completely cured her! She felt terrific. H C Q does cure it! As I stated in my comment to you, she tested 100% negative for Lyme, where she had had it for 20 yrs and tested positive all that time. Negative for it means she was cured! Her doctor told her H C Q will cure it - it did. Best of luck!!!
This is one of those "precautionary" steps. Babesiosis can be seriously life threatening so it is taken seriously. There used to be a lifetime ban on those who said they had ever had the disease, but with better testing re-entry into the donor pool is now allowed by some. These are the latest rules/guidelines: https://americasblood.org/news/final-babesia-guidance-published-by-fda/. So you may very well be able to participate if you have no residual. Your blood bank will be delighted to work with you, I am sure.
