In the year 2012, the United States have experienced outbreaks of deadly disease invasion called Chagas. Chagas disease is caused by a parasite called Trypanosoma Cruzi which is transmitted through bites of insects, the origin of the Latin America, Vinhuca, or more commonly called the kissing bug.

Most co-infected patients acquire T. cruzi through the vector-borne route in childhood and acquire HIV later in life. It is estimated that 98% of co-infection cases are diagnosed in the chronic stage of the disease, in a context of reactivation, while the remaining 2% are associated with acute infection. 2 A

The Chagas disease was touted as new versions of AIDS because the incubation period is long and reportedly difficult to cure. This is because the parasite Trypanosoma Cruzi can stay active in the body for 30 years until finally kills suddenly by means of stopping the heartbeat or destroy the intestine of its victims.

From research conducted, insect kissing bugs usually bite people's faces when he sleeps. Carrying a deadly disease is a silent killer because most people rarely show symptoms that she had been infected.
This disease can be transmitted from mother to child or through blood transfusions. Around a quarter of the victims will finally have an enlarged heart, causing sudden death.

The disease is also believed to have killed Charles Darwin decades after being bitten by insects in South America. Infected patients should take prescription drugs for 3 months and only effective if the disease is detected early.
