Freshwater Snails in Schistosomiasis Endemic Communities in Ovia South-West Local Government Area in Edo State, Nigeria

2025-03-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Malacological surveys are crucial for determining vectors transmitting the Schistosoma species responsible for schistosomiasis in endemic communities. Ovia South-West Local Government Area of Edo State in Nigeria is one of the localities endemic for urogenital schistosomiasis. However, there is no report of the snail host of the disease in any community. <h4>Method</h4> A year-long freshwat...
