Frequently Asked Questions
What belongs in an exposure history?
Travel destinations and dates, prophylaxis and vaccinations taken, food and water sources, insect and animal contact, freshwater exposure, sexual history, injecting drug use, and contact with anyone similarly unwell.
How do I break a new infection diagnosis well?
Check what the patient already suspects, warn before delivering the result, pause and let it land, address confidentiality and partner notification explicitly, and correct the prognosis myths patients most often hold before closing.
