Bio
Schistosomiasis is a debilitating, sometimes fatal, parasitic worm infection that chronically afflicts some 200 million people in many of the world’s poorest countries. It is designated by the WHO as one of the world’s ‘great neglected diseases’ and a ‘disease of poverty’. Free-living parasite larvae, released into freshwater by intermediate host snails, can rapidly penetrate intact human skin. Adult worms then develop and live in the human blood stream for many years, releasing thousands of tissue-damaging eggs. Effective drug treatment is available, but in schistosomiasis endemic areas, reinfection occurs rapidly after treatment, especially in children.
