The Human Dirofilariasis Research Institute Inc
Occult Dirofilariasis (heartworm) is a long-ignored disease in the US and worldwide. There is currently no viable test for this disease in humans, and the only know cure is so toxic that it will never be prescribed to a human without being 100% sure they have the disease. Over 41.1 Million people in the US (2020) will have been exposed yet nobody is ever diagnosed, therefor no statistics can ever be collected, and no money will be allocated. The people affected by this disease suffer in silence with all kinds of immunologically induced morbidities and suicide that will never be associated with the underlying disease. Without a diagnostic test these people will never know the cause of their illness and their doctors are helpless to do anything about it. See HDRI.org for more information.
