Pathogenos

Pathogenos is a science and public health information platform that connects pathogen research with issues affecting communities, particularly across Latin America. Its articles explain infectious diseases, emerging outbreaks, laboratory methods, and prevention in accessible terms, drawing attention to how scientific evidence can inform public health decisions. Coverage includes viruses such as dengue, Oropouche, Zika, SARS-CoV-2, hantavirus, and measles, as well as bacteria including Helicobacter pylori. The site also examines vaccine hesitancy, cancer linked to infections, outbreak preparedness, diagnostic testing, and developments in health research.

Pathogenos publishes data-focused explainers alongside laboratory features that describe how researchers investigate pathogens, proteins, and vaccine attitudes. Its content highlights regional surveillance and research findings, and discusses practical topics such as symptoms, testing, vaccination, and prevention. With categories including Inside the Data, Inside the Lab, and Viruses, the platform helps readers explore both the science behind infectious disease and its wider social and health implications. It serves as an educational resource for readers seeking clear context on research and public health challenges.
