Three premature babies who contract Babesia from blood transfusions.
Dr. Cameron feels that the best way to get to know Lyme disease is through reviewing actual cases. In this Inside Lyme Podcast episode, he will be discussing three premature babies who contract Babesia from blood transfusions.
These cases were originally described in the Journal of the Pediatric Infectious Disease Society, written by Saetre and colleagues in 2017.
