Key points. Babesia infection ranges from subclinical to severe, presenting with flu-like symptoms and clinical or laboratory signs of red blood cell destruction. Diagnosis requires careful examination, often including a detailed review of a peripheral blood smear to spot the parasite, especially in immunosuppressed patients.
