Kissing Bug, The: A True Story of a Family, An Insect, and a Nation's Neglect of a Deadly Disease
Hernández, DaisyGrowing up in a New Jersey factory town in the 1980s, Hernández only knew that her aunt had died of a rare illness called Chagas. Digging deeper, she discovered more than three hundred thousand Americans have Chagas-- or the kissing bug disease. Why do some infectious diseases make headlines and others fall by the wayside? Hernández interviews patients, epidemiologists, and even veterinarians with the Department of Defense. Outside of Latin America, the United States is the only country with the native insects that carry the Chagas parasite. Hernández show how poverty, racism, and public policies have conspired to keep this disease hidden. Winner of the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award National Book Foundation Science + Literature Selection
