Extract
Schistosomiasis is a chronic debilitating disease which accounts for considerable human mortality and morbidity and is second only to malaria in its prevalence and severity. Despite several years of concentrated effort to combat the disease with molluscicides and chemotherapy, schistosomiasis is still spreading, and it is thought that 500 million people are currently exposed to infection (larotski & Davis, 1981).
