Dutch researchers say parasitic worm may reduce pandemic lung damage
Original: spoelworm
Infection with the roundworm, or spoelworm, could be an answer to a new pandemic, according to a Dutch report. The parasite appears to cause far less damage to the lungs during infection, which has drawn attention as a possible lead for future outbreak response. The idea of deliberately studying a worm infection as protection is striking, and it is prompting curiosity and debate in the Netherlands about how such a finding could be used.
Why now: A Dutch news report suggested roundworm infection may reduce lung damage in a future pandemic, an unusual medical claim drawing attention.
