  1. And the parasite Is? And how did he get it? And where did he get it? How do you prevent it? How do you treat it?

    This is journalism?

  2. Why didn’t you guys explain what it is, how can someone get it, if there is a way to avoid it, or even if it is a singular case or it might be spreading?
