Do parasites cause morbidity or deaths?


Do parasites cause morbidity or deaths?

Estimates of global morbidity and mortality rates
due to major human helminth (worms) infections.

The format of this table was modified from that presented in the orignal publication.  Note that these diseases cause relatively few deaths, but that each causes significant morbidity, and it is the chronic and disabling nature of these diseases that have such an impact on human populations, especially in developing countries.
