Fever and Anemia in a Mediterranean Country
Needs Statement
Clinicians in the United States, including infectious diseases specialists, internists, pediatricians, surgeons, advanced practice providers, fellows, residents, and medical students, lack experience with the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of tropical diseases.

The case conference also aims to promote an international collaborative approach to tropical medicine, enhance the quality of care for patients with tropical diseases, and improve patient outcomes.
