Similar to schistosomiasis, malaria, food-borne trematodiasis, lymphatic filariasis, and dengue, one of the main reasons for the proliferation of JE is the ecologic transformation caused by water resources development and management that create suitable breeding sites for vectors and intermediate hosts, which in turn influence the frequency and transmission dynamics of these diseases (39).
Separate chapters characterize the life history, host range, and transmission of tapeworms, roundworms, flukes, and flatworms along with the diagnosis, epidemiology, morbidity, and treatment of food- borne trematodiasis, lymphatic filariasis, schistosomiasis, and trichinosis.
For example, these developments enabled the countrywide marketing of aquaculture products and snails produced in the southern provinces, which might also be responsible for the emergence of foodborne trematodiasis (13).
