Holidays are a time when children are particularly vulnerable to parasite infection, mainly due to poor hygiene. These include, among others head lice or pinworm, very common among the youngest. How to avoid them? The campaign of the National Health Fund, supporting education in the field of parasitic diseases, is to help.

  1. Scabies, head lice and pinworms are problems mainly in childhood, but not only
  2. People who do not care about hygiene are primarily exposed to parasites
  3. That is why it is so important to educate from an early age
  4. More current information can be found on the Onet homepage.

There is a holiday ahead of us, and what about the hygiene of our children?

This is a good time to remind the kids of the hygiene rules, as summer camps and camps are about to begin. Thanks to this, we will avoid contamination ourselves and prevent the spread of parasites.

Contrary to popular belief, parasitic diseases can happen to anyone, at any age. Not only for people with a low level of personal hygiene.

Dirty hands, unwashed fruit and vegetables are the most common causes of food poisoning and parasite infestation! The most common in humans are pinworms, head lice and scabies.

How are they different from each other? We invite you to listen to the experts.

About who is most at risk of parasite infestations, how to cure pinworms, scabies and head lice, and how to act prophylactically to prevent these infections, they say:

· Małgorzata Jeziorna, specialist in dermatology, venereology, and allergist

· Małgorzata Kowalczyk – Kram, a specialist in family medicine.
