Article Synopsis
- Liver fluke disease is a significant public health issue in northeastern Thailand, primarily influenced by local habits and misconceptions regarding raw fish consumption.
- A study involving 400 individuals over 30 years old identified key risk factors, including owning cats and consuming raw fish either prepared at home or bought locally, which significantly increases infection rates.
- The study suggests launching an educational campaign to promote the safe cooking of fish to prevent liver fluke infections while still enjoying the flavor of fully cooked dishes.*
