Discussion: The prevalence of Chagas disease was much higher in people attending social events than healthcare centres, suggesting that observations based only on health facility data underestimate the real prevalence of Chagas disease. Screening in the community was well accepted and should be promoted to reach the population at highest risk.

En el fragmento anterior, se realiza una recomendación en relación con el cribado (realización de pruebas diagnósticas).

• Sí

• No

Discussion: The prevalence of Chagas disease was much higher in people attending social events than healthcare centres, suggesting that observations based only on health facility data underestimate the real prevalence of Chagas disease. Screening in the community was well accepted and should be promoted to reach the population at highest risk.

En el fragmento anterior, se compara la prevalencia de la enfermedad y se interpreta ese resultado haciendo referencia a la subestimación de la prevalencia real de la enfermedad.

• Sí

• No

In Geneva, Switzerland, people attending a primary healthcare facility specifically for migrants have been screened, revealing that 12.8% of people tested were positive. This high prevalence and the large Latin American population living in Switzerland (estimated to be around 80,000 people), highlight the importance of investigating the situation in the nearby canton of Vaud, where testing for Chagas disease had never been offered and the prevalence is thus totally unknown.

>> La gran cantidad de latinos que vive en Suiza y la alta prevalencia de la enfermedad de Chagas en Ginebra destacan la importancia de investigar la situación en el cantón de Vaud donde aún no se conoce la prevalencia de la enfermedad.

• El texto destaca que solo por la gran población de latinos que viven en Suiza se justifica conocer la prevalencia de la enfermedad en el cantón de Vaud.

• El enunciado es Verdadero, no necesita corrección.

• Es falsa porque el texto dice que no se conoce la prevalencia de la enfermedad ni en Ginebra ni en el cantón de Vaud.
