MMic Tutorials 1 to 4: A Stimulated Case
A 85 year old male was found to be staying alone in one-room flat. It is found that his mattress was soiled with human excreta and urine. The premise is infested with cockroaches, fleas and rats. It is known to the neighbors that the elderly man has the habit of feeding stray dogs and cats in the neighborhood.
The elderly man was referred to a nursing home and presented with high fever, rash and general weakness.
How would you approach this situation in order to provide final diagnosis of the suspected microorganisms?
