Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), also called African sleeping sickness, is a parasitic disease that is transmitted by infected tsetse flies. HAT can occur as a chronic or acute infection depending on the sub-species of parasite responsible for the infection.
Definition of the disease. Human African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness, is a vector-borne parasitic disease. It is caused by infection with protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Trypanosoma. They are transmitted to humans by tsetse fly (Glossina genus) bites which have acquired their infection from human beings or from animals harbouring human pathogenic parasites.
