Explain what factors could cause opportunistic mycoses to be agrowing medical problem.
Write at least one paragraph about the prevention and control of the following parasites:
EXAMPLE: Entamoeba histolytica (fecal-oral route of transmission).
Plasmodium spp. (transmitted by vector bite).
Enterovirus vermicularis (fecal-oral route and autoinfection)
Schistosoma haematobium (Skin penetration after water contact)
Taenia seginata (ingestion of contaminated food)
