Blood-sucking ‘kissing bugs’ have now carried a deadly parasite across 32 US states, the CDC warns, with hundreds of thousands of people likely already infected with the parasitic disease Chagas without realizing it.
Only 29 confirmed infections were reported in the US between 2000 and 2018. The CDC is urging authorities to reclassify the disease as endemic in the US, in the hope of increasing awareness and enabling more people to receive timely treatment.
“Most people living with Chagas disease are unaware of their diagnosis, often until it’s too late to have effective treatment,” warns infectious disease epidemiologist Judith Currier from the University of California, Los Angeles. More
I’ve never kissed any bugs and don’t plan on starting now.
Can these be mail ordered from biological supply houses and do you think DC’s Rock Creek Park would be a suitable habitat for them?
Of course they blame “globull warming”.
No – the increase in cases in the USA is all the illegals coming here who already have it. Just like TB.
Parasite?
Ivermectin!
They’re recommending nifurtimox and benznidazole.

Other claims say IVM doesn’t work as well.
But then they say a lot of things about IVM. lol
Parasite?
Taxpayers being bled by Illegal immigrants, able-bodied Americans on Welfare and Congressional incompetence.
Is it okay to go ahead and kiss de girl? Or will I get the cooties?
(Okay, who needs a kiss?)
ILLEGALS coming in over the last 4 years dragging these bugs in their belongings or clothing with them so the bugs can multiply in the U.S.

Kiss-my-ass disease. Hopefully, Fauci dies from it.
Guess it all depends on where you kiss her, General.
My trust in the CDC may never return. So kiss my ass.
I thought it was Herpes?
