“…It is noteworthy that out of the 15 identified cases of chagasic infection, three originated from endemic areas (states of Minas Gerais, Ceará, and Alagoas). This fact reinforces the evidence of the risks of the movement of CD cases in the Brazilian Amazonia being caused by human migrations from endemic areas to Amazonia due to the increasing proximity between the vectors, the trypanosome reservoir hosts and people [10][11][26][27] .…”

“…Among the contributing factors that helped its spread as a human endemic disease [7][8][9][10] were the human population migrations from endemic areas to the Amazon [10][11] , the disordered deforestation of the Amazon rainforest, and the increasing proximity between people and the reservoir host and vectors naturally infected by Trypanosoma cruzi, turning the disease into an endemic 2-3,9-11 .…”

“…Este es un fenómeno nuevo que ha sido reportado de manera destacada desde hace dos dé-cadas 56,57 y que en los estudios serológicos han mostrado una prevalencia entre 2,4% y 13,2% 7 , y que si bien algunos investigadores consideran que no existe un riesgo importante de que se convierta en un problema de salud pública en la actualidad 58 , no es descabellado tampoco pensar que pueda serlo en el futuro cercano, sobre todo si se imaginan los cambios que ocurrirán en la ocupación del territorio amazónico y en el resto de zonas agrícolas de América Latina, como resultado del proceso de globalización, de la demanda mundial de alimentos y de las oportunidades de negocios que de allí se derivan.…”

“…La réfrigération et même la congélation n'assurent pas l'assainissement d'aliments contaminés mais la cuisson détruit les parasites, à partir de 45°C (Dias 2006). Des recherches restent néanmoins nécessaires pour identifier les aliments à risque, répertorier les facteurs favorisants et évaluer les traitements potentiellement assainissants (Silveira 2007). Dans l'attente, outre la cuisson, il convient d'appliquer les principes de bonnes pratiques d'hygiène figurant dans l'encadré 2.…”
