  • Title: In harm's way: infections in deployed American military forces.
    Author: Aronson NE, Sanders JW, Moran KA.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 2006 Oct 15; 43(8):1045-51. PubMed ID: 16983619.
    Abstract:
    Hundreds of thousands of American service members have been deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq since 2001. With emphasis on the common infections and the chronic infections that may present or persist on their return to the United States, we review the data on deployment-associated infections. These infections include gastroenteritis; respiratory infection; war wound infection with antibiotic-resistant, gram-negative bacteria; Q fever; brucellosis; and parasitic infections, such as malaria and leishmaniasis.
