webfact Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Picture: Daily News Daily News published some warnings this rainy season about different kinds of parasites with the help of Dr Dorn Wattanakunpanich of Mahidol university. He said that many parasites thrive in Thailand in the humid conditions always made worse by the wet weather each rainy season. He identified one of the culprits as "hookworm" or Phayati Pak Khor in Thai. These are prevalent all over Thailand but especially in the south when children who have direct contact with earth may contract them. They can crawl under the skin in exposed areas like feet. Then they can congregate in intestines and grab the food and nutrition from the host creating other problems. Some parasites live in and thrive on blood and can be seen in areas under the skin, as in a scary looking photo published by Daily News. People were also advised to eat their food hot not raw so as to kill parasites that dwell in items such as meat. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-09-29 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Joeb Posted September 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2021 This is real. I have had two cases of parasite infections in the last 3 months. Both started with very small cuts on a finger. First one was a ringwork type infection and the finger looked kind of like the picture in the article. Second one was a different kind that caused my hand to swell up. Both treated with Ivermectin and were gone in about 48 hours. Hmmm, haven't caught Covid either. Proof that Ivermectin must be a wonder drug. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post xtrnuno41 Posted September 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2021 And still in Thailand they make the "very special" fish sauce, pla raa ? It could be loaded with parasites, bacteria and so on. You ever see how they make it? I did in a docu and where they warned about the sauce containing parasites, where pieces of rotten fish are still floating in the liquid and has the smell of rotten fish. Sorry, no pla raa for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
internationalism Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 those just under skin are the easiest to spot and fast treat. More dangerous are those which thrive inside body for years, tens of years, without giving any apparent symptoms, until it's too late to remove or even control them. I don't think rainy season is more dangerous, but lowering hygiene standards is. Still, several anti-parasitic's are easily available in every pharmacy, cheap and can be self-administered without side effects. Some of them, like mentioned ivermectine, as well as niclosamide, have also antiviral properties 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite its name, ringworm is not medically considered to be a parasite. It's a fungal infection.The "worm" in the name is from an obsolete use of "worm" to mean disease. And it's transmitted by contact not through wounds. 5 hours ago, internationalism said: those just under skin are the easiest to spot and fast treat.

Thanx once again in advance And did that research ever proceed to ivermectin being used as a treatment for pseudorabies? Most pharmaceutiicals that do well in vitro don't succeed in actual trials. So this is proof of nothing. It's the same kind of nonsense that claims that because ivermectin worked in vitro against the covid virus, albeit at much much higher concentrations that are normally administered to humans and other mammals, that is proof that it will work clinically.

Misterwhisper Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Parasites that get under your skin? I contracted one once. Wasn't pretty. Commonly abbreviated as MIL, it's scientific nomenclature is Mamamonsterus inlawis. It is known to come in many mutations. Luckily I eventually got rid of it by treating myself with a large dose of divorce., the one and only effective therapy against this vile critter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
