  Author(s): Chioma O Anorue*
  
  This study examined the prevalence and intensity of Schistosoma haematobium infection in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. The study was conducted from May 2018 to April 2019. A total of 875 primary school children were randomly selected from three local government areas (LGA). The prevalence and intensity were determined by urine microscopy. Of the 875 school children examined microscopically, 115(13.1%) were found positive with S. haematobium egg, 46(5.3%) were positive for macrohaematuria. The overall prevalence was higher in males 67(14.9%) with a mean intensity of 41.15 eggs/10 ml urine than females 48(11.3%) with a mean intensity of 48.25 eggs/10 ml urine though the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). School children between 6-8 years old had the highest prevalence of the infection (15.9%) with a mean intensity of 41.42 eggs/10 ml urine, followed by those in age group.. View More»
