    Report

    During Apr 2010-Mar 2013, the Maine Department of Health and Human Services investigated multiple cases of ascariasis that had been reported by health-care providers, veterinarians, and patients. All these cases were in persons who had lived or worked on Maine farms and had frequent exposure to pigs. The state health officials conducted field investigations at four of the seven farms with reported cases and collected worms from humans and pigs from pooled pig feces to better assess the extent of the ascariasis problem.
