The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene issued a health advisory regarding the upward trend of human leptospirosis cases.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), leptospirosis is a “bacterial disease that affects humans and animals. It is caused by bacteria of the genus Leptospira. In humans, it can cause a wide range of symptoms, some of which may be mistaken for other diseases.”
“Without treatment, Leptospirosis can lead to kidney damage, meningitis (inflammation of the membrane around the brain and spinal cord), liver failure, respiratory distress, and even death,” the CDC writes.
“Human leptospirosis infections in NYC are largely associated with exposure to environments and materials contaminated with rat urine,” the NYC Department of Health wrote.
