I was shocked,” said Bridget McIlwee, the doctor who saw the young patient, “because in medical school, we’re taught that this is a tropical disease, something that you see in immigrants, military returning from deployment, people who went on vacation to South America or Asia or Africa.”
but but i thought it was because of climate change. retards
