Article Excerpts about Parasitic Conditions

exists by depending on another organism. Parasites that infect
humans are much more widespread than many people realize. These

the world, but they also can be important health problems for rich
and poor throughout the world, including the United
States. (Source: excerpt from Parasitic Roundworm Diseases, NIAID Fact Sheet: NIAID)
