LONDON: A Parasitic worm which affects millions of the world’s poorest people may hold an important but little-k**wn key to cutting the spread of HIV, researchers said ahead of a conference on the issue in London.
Schistosomiasis affects at least 250 million people.
It is caused by Parasitic worms, picked up in infested waters, which drill through people’s skin and lay eggs in their bodies. If the worms lay eggs in a woman’s genital areas, including the vagina and cervix, they can cause lesions which make women more vulnerable to HIV, experts in the tropical disease said.
