What reason is fecal quantity much?

The main source of infection was the people who continuously excreted cysts in feces, including chronic patients, convalescent and asymptomatic cysts carriers. Because the capsule has strong resistance to the external environment, it can survive for 5 weeks in feces. If it contaminates water and food, it will spread the disease.

Patients in acute stage often excrete a lot of trophozoites, but they die rapidly in the external environment, so patients in acute stage are not included in the main source of infection. Human is the main host and storage host of amoeba histolytica. Although apes, pigs, dogs and mice can be naturally infected with Entamoeba histolytica, its source of infection is of little significance.

It is generally believed that amoeba cysts contaminate food and water, and oral infection is the main route of transmission. Water pollution caused local epidemic. Eating raw fruits and vegetables with contaminated capsule can also cause disease. Flies and cockroaches can also spread. In male homosexuals, sometimes they can be infected by oral pudendal contact.

matters needing attention

Pay attention to food hygiene. The patients with chronic diarrhea should be checked in time, and the patients with intestinal amoebiasis or cysts should be treated thoroughly and isolated from the intestinal tract. If they are in the catering industry, they should be temporarily transferred from work. It is also important to eliminate flies and cockroaches and strengthen the management of feces. Pay attention to the sanitation in daily life to avoid infection.
