Can community health volunteers boost schistosomiasis awareness in schools?

This study surveyed nearly 1,000 students in Pemba, Zanzibar, to see how much they know about schistosomiasis (a parasitic disease) and how they feel about it. Researchers tested a health education program led by community volunteers to see if it improves students' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors. The goal is to find a simple way to teach kids in affected areas how to protect themselves.
