It’s estimated that about 10 million people are infected a parasite through kissing bugs. It can be transmitted by transfusion. Treatment in first 3 months is critical. No vaccine is available yet. It is critical to have early specific treatment (benznidazole or nifurtimox) to avoid late heart problems. It seems that to develop an effective vaccine and to control the growth of kissing bugs are key long term goals.
