Hello there, I'm curious about something related to Cryptosporidium in humans. Can you elaborate on what exactly kills Cryptosporidium in the human body? Is it a specific medication, a natural immune response, or a combination of factors? I'm particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms at play here and how they contribute to eliminating this parasite from the body. Your insights would be greatly appreciated.
