Except there are scans for typhoid and cholera.
Gf is actually waiting for blood results back for typhoid at the moment.
Now we could say "hey the chances are so small why check? never had it before so I don't have it" like you suggest, but we'd rather be safe than sorry.

You can claim you've been virus free for 10 years until you're blue in the face, it doesn't change the fact you're using false logic as you've never looked for infections during those 10 years.

NTL had some servers which were "virus free" except they weren't as you can see of you search el reg.
