Angiostrongylus Cantonensis is a parasitic nematode (roundworm) that causes Angiostrongyliasis, the most common cause of Eosinophilic Meningitis in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Basin. The nematode commonly resides in the pulmonary arteries of rats, giving it the nickname the rat lungworm. Snails are the primary intermediate hosts, where larvae develop until they are infective. Humans are incidental hosts, and may become infected through ingestion of larvae in raw or undercooked snails or other vectors, or contaminated water and vegetables. The larvae are then transported via the blood to the central nervous system (CNS), where they are the most common cause of eosinophilic meningitis, a serious condition that can lead to death or permanent brain and nerve damage. Identified in 1964, Angiostrongyliasis is an infection of increasing public health importance as globalization aids in the geographic spread of the disease.

  • @Dbane567 There are smart people and dumb people no matter the color of their skins.

  • @Dbane567 And you can see that first hand in america where most black people have become as good as the whites in their lifestyle. So stop being so irrationally racist.

  • @Dbane567 If they were inferior they wouldn't be able to adapt in our societies and they would still be slaves.

  • My leg feels itchy now :/

  • @Antixandros Lol, what do you mean by maybe? Whites are genetically superior. Thats why we advanced quicker. If your going to blame anything blame evolution, or god, whatever floats your boat. BTW, niggers owned Jew slaves back in ancient Egypt. Then of course there is the holocaust. With all the crap the Jews went through they never had any problem building their own civilized country. The reason niggers are so far behind is because they are genetically inferior. Nuff said.

  • @Dbane567 Maybe if some other race with better technology barged into our homelands in europe at the dark ages (before we did the same thing in America, Africa and Oceania) making them their colonies and making us their slaves we would not have reached the level of technology and quality of life we have today, ever thought of that?

  • @Antixandros

    Maybe if niggers would grow a fucking brain. And get with the 21st century, they wouldn't have those problems.

  • Dumb niggers.

  • I'd feel more comfortable eating the peanuts out of Dan Riskin's turds then I would going to Africa.

  • @MegaNigger5000 Actually that comment is more than racist, it is EVIL! DISLIKE!

    How would you like to live there and have this parasite in your body and NOT have a doctor to help you! Let's see how you would feel then smartass...

  • @kodar1994 I think the name is schistosoma haematobium, actually that means: tearsbody livesinblood in my language... :) It is kind of fun when foreign doctors are using medical terms like this one, imagine watching a documentary and somebody says,"the tearsbody livesinblood are common in africa" :D

    Anyway, enough talk, thats the real name...

  • @BiteMe547 Propably bacause snails have very soft tissue and are easy prey.

  • Anyone have a linn to Ep 5?
