Article Synopsis
- Chiapas is a key area for Chagas disease due to infected animals and insects, but there's a lack of effective monitoring for the disease.
- A study tested 193 pregnant women in Tuxtla Gutierrez to find out how common Chagas disease was and whether it could spread to newborns.
- The results showed that 32.12% of the pregnant women were infected, with 8% of their newborns also testing positive for the disease.
