Abstract

Bartonella bacilliformis invades the endothelial lining of the cardiovascular system. Damage to the red blood cells and white blood cells, the effects of the toxins, invasion of the brain and electrical charges induced by the organism so interfering with normal electrical stimulation of the heart may explain many of the features of cardiovascular disease (1-5).
