Intestinal parasites hit 86% of Sudanese children with sickle cell anemia

Original: Intestinal parasites strike 86% of Sudanese children with sickle cell anemia

A new finding reports that 86% of Sudanese children suffering from sickle cell anemia are also infected with intestinal parasites. The high rate of parasitic infection among an already vulnerable group of children highlights the overlapping health burdens facing families in Sudan, where conflict and weakened medical services have made treatment and prevention of such infections harder to access.

Why now: The unusually high infection rate among children already battling sickle cell anemia raises alarm about Sudan's public health crisis.
