This document discusses intestinal parasitic worms (geohelminths) that infect hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Parasitic infections can spread through contaminated food, water, fruits, vegetables, grains, poultry, fish, meat, or from pets to owners. Children are more susceptible as they spend more time outdoors. Heavy infections can cause bowel obstruction or anemia from blood loss. Chronic infections can lead to long-term physical and mental development issues and even death in severe cases. The document also lists 4 students and shows testing results, with some students and family members testing positive and others testing negative for parasitic infections.

2.  Infection by intestinal
parasitic worms
(geohelminths) is widespread
throughout the world,
affecting hundreds of
millions of people.

7. 
Parasitic infection may spread
through contaminated
water, fruits, vegetables, grains, po
ultry, fish or meat. Parasites, in
addition, can be transferred from
pet to owner. Since children spend
more time outdoors, they're more
likely than adults to be exposed to
parasites.

8.  Heavy infections with roundworm can
cause bowel obstruction. Intestinal
worms - especially hookworm - can
contribute to anemia by causing
intestinal bleeding and thus loss of
blood. The larger the number of worms,
the more likely they are to make a
person ill. Chronic infections can lead to
long-term retardation of mental and
physical development and, in very severe
infections, even death.
