i am an american living in Chaco, and it's definitely here. not only do we have the dengue here but also yellow fever (which i still need to get my shot for). the mosquitos eat me alive here, but so far i have only been hospitalized for infected bites that have led to cellulitis… i live on antibiotics, because there is no prevention. just one of the joys of living in chaco…
