Canada: Tapeworm continues to take root in Alberta - Outbreak News Today

By NewsDesk @infectiousdiseasenews A rare parasitic infection imported from Europe continues to take root in Alberta, Canada. The province is now the North American hotspot for human alveolar echinococcosis (AE), which takes the form of a growth in the liver, causing serious and potentially...

A rare parasite that causes cancer-like growths in peoples' livers has started to become increasingly common in North America over the past decade, especially in certain portions of Canada.

In its typical lifecycle, the tapeworm-like parasite called Echinococcus multilocularis lives harmlessly in the small intestines of canines, typically foxes and coyotes, but also pet dogs. When the parasites’ eggs are pooped out and eaten by rodents, the disease takes a different form and results in cyst-like tumours in the liver, which eventually kills the animal.

If humans ingest the parasites' eggs, they too can suffer from this nasty fate. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, humans with the infection can also get tumours in the liver and lungs, and less frequently in the bones, kidneys, spleen, muscles, and central nervous system. However, the disease is relatively difficult to spot in humans as it can easily resemble other diseases, most notably cancer. Symptoms are also fairly vague, such as unspecified pain, jaundice, weakness, and weight loss.

The parasite can kill a human host within 10 to 15 years if left untreated. If the infection is caught early, then surgery to remove the liver mass is possible, although two-thirds of patients will become inoperable as they didn’t receive a diagnosis promptly enough. For these patients, a lifelong treatment of antiparasitic drugs can help stop the mass from growing, but the parasite will survive.



Yet, I'm a bad guy for not wanting to get near these things.
I don't understand dog nuts why won't they wake up! Stop living like cavemen!

Dogs 101: Worms - Causes, Prevention, Cures

Worms are internal parasites that live in just about every dog on the planet, but if the infection reaches unacceptable levels, visit the vet.

dogtime.com

Just about every dog on the planet is infested with worms to some degree. If they stay at low levels, your dog can build up immunity to them. But if the infestation reaches a certain point, worms can cause anemia, lethargy, poor appetite, and even death. Fortunately, almost all worms can be detected by a vet and treated with medication.

It seems there’s no end to the kinds of worms out there (or in there). Among the most well known:

• Roundworms
• Hookworms
• Whipworms
• Tapeworms
• Heartworms

There are others, including protozoans, flukes or trematodes, ascadis (a kind of roundworm), threadworms (also a roundworm), stomach worms (found mostly in the southeastern U.S.), eyeworms, and lungworms.

You’ve probably lost your appetite by now.

These dog nuts are a threat to our health!!!

Zoonotic Diseases in Dogs | VCA Canada Animal Hospitals

Zoonotic disease or zoonoses are terms used to describe an infection or disease that can be transmitted from an animal to a human being.

vcacanada.com

What are the most common zoonotic diseases of dogs?

• ringworm
• salmonellosis
• leptospirosis
• Lyme disease
• campylobacter infection
• Giardia infection
• cryptosporidium infection
• roundworms
• hookworms
• tapeworms
• scabies
• harvest mites
• rabies

What zoonotic diseases are the most likely to cause serious illness in people?
Rabies, caused by a virus, is almost invariably fatal in humans.

Certain infectious organisms, such as the bacteria Salmonella and Campylobacter and the protozoan disease caused by Giardia, can cause severe gastroenteritis.

Leptospirosis, known as Weil's disease in people, can cause extremely serious liver and kidney disease but the transmission from dogs to humans is rare. Humans usually contract this disease from exposure to contaminated water.

Roundworms (Toxocara canis) and tapeworms (Echinococcus species) can cause liver problems, but illness in people from these causes is rare. Direct handling of infected dog feces can potentially cause an infection of roundworms in a susceptible person. Echinococcus tapeworm infections are starting to become more common in areas of Canada and the United States where they had not been recognized before (see handout "Echinococcosis in Dogs" for more information on this disease). Transmission to humans can result from ingestion of eggs released in an infected dog’s feces.

Zoonotic skin diseases including ringworm, caused by the fungus Microsporum canis and scabies, caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei, Cheyletiella mites, and harvest mites (Trombicula species) are transmitted relatively easily to people through direct physical contact.
