Infectious diseases expert here 👋 There are many, many things that are a danger to democracy. I don't think toxoplasma gondii is one of them, Thanks.

Out of all the ID tools that I had access to during my fellowship, this one was the most impactful! A game changer in TxID. It allowed us to achieve rapid/ accurate Dx of IFD and initiate effective management. In some cases, we have proceeded directly to the surgical resections.
