Remind me what the bug is that carries the “makes your heart fall apart slowly” disease that was popular last year.

Triatoma infestans is the primary vector for Chagas’ disease, but it can be transmitted by other triatomines. Fun fact, they shit on your face and the infection comes from you rubbing their infected shit into the fresh open wound. It’s not from the bite itself.
