Abstract: Congenital Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), has become epidemiologically relevant. The probability of congenital transmission depends on the maternal and developing fetal/newborn immune responses, placental factors and importantly, the virulence of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00395-22
Abstract: These important findings show that children may play a larger role in viral transmission of Delta than for previously circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants. Additionally, they may suggest a mechanism for why Delta has evolved to be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1165/rcmb.2018-0278oc
Abstract: Comparisons of infectivity among the clinically important nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species have not been explored in great depth. Rapid-growing mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium abscessus and M. porcinum, can cause indolent but progressive lung disease. Slow-growing members… read more here.
