Montreal General Hospital: Mcgill University Health Centre

University Health Centre Dept: Ndao is laboratory director of the National Reference Centre for Parasitology. He and his research team work at the McGill University Health Centre's Research Institute on Pine Ave, according to Montreal Gazette. Chagas can be transmitted from mother to unborn child and can be passed along for four generations before symptoms -including heart disease and malformation of the intestines -appear. Bottom line: you don't want to catch it, and probably won't from anything that bites you in Montreal and dr. Momar Ndao is fighting the good fight against diseases you've never heard of and probably won't catch -you hope, because they're nasty. The building adjoins the Montreal General Hospital's ER, where, in an average year, they'll treat more people for arrow wounds than for Chagas, a parasitic disease that afflicts 10 million people, all of whom live well south of Pine. Transmitted through an insect bite, Chagas kills 50,000 people in South America every year. As reported in the news.
