Carlos Chagas foi o primeiro até os dias atuais a descrever completamente uma doença infecciosa. Chagas encontrou protozoários no intestino do barbeiro e, depois, no sangue de animais, identificando que o barbeiro transmitia o parasita via fezes contaminadas, que infectava humanos e animais.

“We grew up not knowing another family affected by Chagas disease,” says @dazeher.bsky.social, whose aunt died of the insect-borne disease. When she couldn’t find a book about it, she wrote her own: buff.ly/eLUdN6D
A triatomine insect, also called a kissing bug, on a leaf. Triatomine insects are found in South America, Central America, and in the U.S., and can transmit Chagas disease by biting an individual and then defecating, spreading the Chagas parasite.

Vou eu, com meus 8 anos, e minha família pra missa. E lá tinham colocado em tamanho real, uma estátua de Jesus Cristo deitado, todo ferido do calvário, chagas e tudo mais.
Quando eu entrei na capela, a estátua tava do meu lado, deitada em uma "maca".

🎧 Journalist @dazeher.bsky.social chronicles the history of Chagas disease, also known as kissing bug disease, and how it changed her family’s story: buff.ly/eLUdN6D
"I very much grew up in the shadow of this disease. [My auntie] came into my life when I was 5 years old. I was the person in the family who was bilingual. So I was the child interpreter and translator for everyone, speaking about Chagas at that age in terms of interpreting between her and nurses and doctors." —Daisy Hernández [Quote accompanied by a headshot of Daisy Hernández.]

People will oppose anything above one story. Look at where this four-story mixed-used building would go, replacing an empty one-story building. #Winnipeg
Four lanes of road on Corydon Avenue in Winnipeg. Four lanes of road on Corydon Avenue in Winnipeg. [Architect] Chagas, who lives only a few doors away from the proposed development, said he has listened to area residents; the balconies will be fully recessed, and sight lines will be directed away from backyards. He also said the upper storey won’t be as wide as the lower three in order to allow more sunlight to reach nearby homes. “I’m 60 and I don’t want to leave River Heights,” he said. “But, if we don’t build residential and commercial, we will have to move. “We need to educate people on what’s coming in the next 20 years.”
