  abstract = {{W}e analyzed the food sources of {B}olivian wild {T}riatoma infestans (the main vector of {C}hagas disease in this country), to assess the role of these populations in the epidemiological context of {C}hagas disease. {N}inety-eight blood meals were identified by heteroduplex assay and sequencing. {M}ost of them were from wild mammals but surprisingly 27 were from humans. {T}his brings to light the occurrence of human-vector contacts at risk of {T}rypanosoma cruzi transmission in the wild environment by highly infected insects.},
