https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srinivasa_Ramanujan
>A 1994 analysis of Ramanujan's medical records and symptoms by D. A. B. Young[103] concluded that his medical symptoms—including his past relapses, fevers, and hepatic conditions—were much closer to those of hepatic amoebiasis, an illness then widespread in Madras, than of tuberculosis. He had two episodes of dysentery before he left India. When not properly treated, amoebic dysentery can lie dormant for years and lead to hepatic amoebiasis, whose diagnosis was not then well established.

>Amoebiasis is usually transmitted by the fecal-oral route
>Since amoebiasis is transmitted through contaminated food and water, it is often endemic in regions of the world with limited modern sanitation systems, including México, Central America, western South America, South Asia, and western and southern Africa.[16]
