Cryptococcal Meningitis: Dealing with the most common opportunistic fungal infection

Enteric fever, also known as typhoid fever, is a common infectious disease in low and middle income countries. It is the commonest bacterial cause of fever in returning travellers and migrants from these areas. Diagnosis is complicated as symptoms overlap with other causes of fever and early investigations are inconclusive. A growing problem is antibiotic resistance. General practitioners play a crucial part in preventive, such as vaccination, early identification and management of patients with severe disease, and rapid referral of those patients. Join us live on Medflix with this super interesting and informative session discussing every aspect of managing a case of Typhoid fever!
