I did have my fair share of swimming in open waters lots of time, thankfully the trematodes that cause schistosomiasis may be on holidays.

some “stupid girls and boys” (his words when he told me this story) appeared from behind nearby trees coming towards the river probably on a mission to have a nice time in the river after some “foolish” games in the woods.

I thought Peter was hallucinating :)

Good article and thank you for sharing.
