YoocoKEHSgp4674
For individuals which are infected by T. b. gambiense, which accounts for 98% of all of the reported cases, a person can be infected for months or even years without signs or symptoms until the advanced disease stage, where it is too late to be treated.
The specific drug and treatment course will depend on the type of infection (T. b. gambiense or T. b. rhodesiense) and the disease stage. Pentamidine, which is the recommended drug for first stage T. b. gambiense infection, is widely available in the U.S.
