When Claudia Rodríguez discovered she had Chagas disease during her pregnancy, she faced immense fear and uncertainty. Chagas, a parasitic infection transmitted by kissing bugs, can pass from mother to baby, risking severe complications. Fortunately, after undergoing treatment, Rodríguez’s newborn tested negative for the disease. Her relief, however, was tempered by the knowledge that many others aren’t as lucky. In regions like Latin America, where Chagas is endemic, limited awareness and healthcare barriers often delay diagnoses and treatment, putting lives at risk.
