Cryptococcal meningitis can affect both healthy and immunocompromised individuals. a) trueb) false

The given statement is TRUE.

Explanation:

Cryptococcosis is a lethal fungal infection which is caused by the fungus cryptococcus gattii and cryptococcus neoformans.

The species cryptococcus gattii is capable of infecting an immunocompetent individual i.e. an individual with a healthy immune system.
