You kid but I really keep seeing these people scared witless everywhere they visit eating only western food. The food has got to be the best part of Southeast Asia.

Oh lol goodness I thought you were being sarcastic. The food in all likelihood won't really hurt you if you're properly careful. The food is really amazing.

Schistosomiasis seems to be probmattic, so overlooked like other illnesses that people may suffer in the kingdom. The WHO have programs running in countries with the likes of Africa and bordering Cambodia, Thailand, whom have a mindset to treat people with the infected snail disease of Schistosomiasis. But dissipate the problem you would first come across the problem that your most likely not find the recommend drug's to solve the problem, unless the pharmacy had any of the now banned drugs under the counter, the drugs that were originally at the time recommended by the WHO to combat the infestation. Reading more into the subject, this arose because America also found the problem to be on the rise there too, a recent medical study found that a medicine that is used for women's period pain and discomfort can be used to eliminate the eggs of the liver fluke from people who have schistosomiasis, but unfortunately it won't kill the adult liver flukes. The drug can be bought in pharmacists and is legal.
Always "hope" but never "expect".
