Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease with a very long endemic history in Asia. Great strides have been made to control the disease in China and the Philippines but the road to elimination is far from over, given the zoonotic nature of the schistosome parasites in both countries.
血吸虫病是一种被忽视的热带病,在亚洲有着非常长的流行历史。中国和菲律宾在控制该病方面取得了巨大进展,但鉴于两国的血吸虫寄生虫具有动物源性,消除该病的道路还很漫长。
