Abstract

Fascioliasis is a reemerging zoonosis endemic in many parts of the world. Reports of imported fascioliasis by migrants into nonendemic countries are common, but tourists and business travelers are rarely afflicted. Here, we report a case of a New Zealander traveler who acquired the infection on a business trip.

肝片吸虫病是一种再度出现的人畜共患病，在世界许多地区流行。移民将肝片吸虫病输入非流行国家的报道很常见，但游客和商务旅行者很少感染。在此，我们报告一例新西兰商务旅行者感染该病的病例。
