Definition
A serious fungal infection caused by Cryptococcus, which can affect the lungs, brain, and other organs, especially in people with weakened immune systems.
Etymology
From 'Cryptococcus' + '-osis' (suffix meaning 'abnormal condition or disease'). The disease was formally identified in the late 1800s as medicine developed better microscopy techniques.
Kelly Says
Before HIV/AIDS, cryptococcosis was rare—but it became tragically common in the 1990s as an AIDS-defining illness; now it kills more people annually than tuberculosis in sub-Saharan Africa, yet receives a fraction of the research funding!
