@wsbtv It's not a study by the CDC, it's a study published in Emerging Infectious Diseases, a CDC journal. I wish media would get this right. https://t.co/MwKA88X0eC

染する可能性があります。感染すると、脳に移動し、軽度の一過性の症状、もしくは、場合によっては、重度の神経機能障害を引き起こすことがあります。重篤な場合には、神経損傷、麻痺、昏睡を引き起こし、死に至る場合もあります。現在、対症療法以外の治療法はありません。https://t.co/WsyKrq6aWj

"Clearly, A. cantonensis lungworm in urban rat populations, gastropod intermediate hosts, and other paratenic hosts in the populous greater Atlanta area pose a possible threat to the health of humans and domestic, free-ranging, and captive animals." https:
