Leukopenia Almost Always Indicates an Infection

Question

Leukopenia almost always indicates an infection.

Accepted Answer

Leukopenia refers to a decrease in the level of white blood cells in the body. While infections can sometimes cause leukopenia, it can also be caused by other factors such as medication side effects, autoimmune disorders, and certain types of cancer. Therefore, leukopenia does not always indicate an infection.
