Abstract

During the period from October 2022 to March 2023, 40 samples were examined for children aged 5-12 years in primary school. The examination was done using the Scotch tape method. The results of the current study showed that the pinworm Enterobius vermicularis is widespread, with the total infection rate reaching 62.5% (61.53% in males and 62.96% in females). The results also showed that there were no significant differences in infection with the pinworm Enterobius vermicularis in terms of age and gender.
