I mean that you said "the cloth filter will remove all pathogens" this is very wrong, it is actually ineffective against most pathogens. The reason I mention guinea worm is because apart from chemotheorpy the use of the cloth filter is the main way to prevent transmission of the disease. There aren't

I assume you mean that the cloth filter will not prevent contact with affected water? But I would presume that water treated in this way would be free of schistosome larvae. So it's not a complete solution, but might still be useful if, for example, someone wanted to wash their child in clean water.

Regarding the use of - this doesn't mean I don't believe it, just that it is important to get a verifiable source for this. It seems that you have shared a little known (and valuable) piece of information. Hopefully you can find something, or someone sees this who can help. I am still very curious

Hello Singkong. As per your requests I will try and add to the article during the summer months. The area is familar to me only because I was fortunate enough to do a course of 'waste water and sanitation for developing countries'. I think I'd have done better in the exam if I had contributed to

I don't know why that is the case... Could you explain what your source is? E.g. personal knowledge, heard from doctors. I couldn't find more info online, so I'm very keen to learn more.
537: 152:~ Is there a source for this? All the reading I did referred to cholera and Bangladesh. I'm interested to learn about the use of cloth filters in Africa (where the guinea worm is). 95: 527: 222:, which is supported by the sources I supplied. I assume schistosomes are much larger than bacteria, so removal should be almost 100%. If you disagree I am very curious to know why. 74: 54: 465: 461: 447: 355: 351: 337: 263:
I reinserted the text about guinea worm - the article history shows that I removed it but I can't remember exactly why - I think the removal was too hasty anyway.

Of course, an effective filter will remove any pathogen, more or less effectively, so I don't doubt that it's effective for guinea worms. --
