Schistosoma mansoni is a
major parasitic pathogen
that causes
schistosomiasis.
You can become infected
when your skin comes in
contact with contaminated
freshwater.
Schistosomiasis accounts
for greater than a ¼ of a
million deaths per year.
These not found in the
U.S.
Why?
Within days after becoming
infected, they may develop a
rash or itchy skin. Within 1-2
months of infection, symptoms
may develop including fever,
chills, cough, and muscle aches.
Symptoms of chronic
schistosomiasis include:
abdominal pain, enlarged liver,
blood in the stool or blood in
the urine, problems passing
urine, and increased risk of
bladder cancer.
