Extract

Contrary to the opinion expressed in various manuals of parasitology and pathology, cases of germ-carrying by the larvae of parasitic worms from the intestines of an organism, remain extremely rare. Similarly the intestinal mucosa of the intestines damaged by parasites does not necessarily form “a gate through which takes place infection” of bacteria and viruses. This is additionally proved by experimental research conducted in the first place by Taylor (1935), Enigk (1954), Stefański (1956), as well as by Stefański and Zebrowski (1958) and also by Przyjalkowski (1958).
