The medical tests are mainly intended to detect tuberculosis, HIV and other STDs. If you are free from these problems or have had no history of them, you can be rest assured of being pronounced fit. The tests themselves are comprehensive and include blood tests, urine tests, eyesight etc etc..

Nothing that comprehensive so nothing to worry.. Just the really bad ones - herpes, syphillis etc..
