Trichomonas is a genus of anaerobic excavate parasites of vertebrates. It was first discovered by Alfred François Donné in 1836 when he found these parasites in the pus of a patient suffering from vaginitis, an inflammation of the vagina. Donné named the genus from its morphological characteristics. Wikipedia
Trichomoniasis (or “trich”) is a very common sexually transmitted disease (STD). It is caused by infection with a protozoan parasite called Trichomonas vaginalis. Although symptoms of the disease vary, most people who have the parasite cannot tell they are infected. CDC
Scanning with Hunter 4025, Biofilia, or Hadoscan will show Trichomomonas vaginalis is a common coinfection with COVID and goes to the lungs in both males and females even in people with no sexual activity. About half of COVID deaths are associated with pneumonia which can be aggravated by this coinfection.
