Healthline, Aug. 22, 2023
UTMB’s Dr. David Walker spoke to Healthline about a new bacterium reported in the US by the CDC. Little is known about the bacterium and Walker said there is still a lot to learn about it. “This is another anaplasma that affects humans so it’s the beginning of the story that we need to learn more about,” Walker told Healthline. “It was only 4 samples out of 30,000 samples so it’s a low percentage.”
