A country doctor dedicated to the fight against schistosomiasis

It takes Chen Fanjing and his colleagues decades of years of efforts to effectively control the infection source. With public’s awareness of schistosomiasis prevention being enhanced through various educational campaigns, and local villagers taking initiative to seek medical treatment and eliminate the snails, the schistosomiasis infection rate has been effectively controlled. Now people won’t be infected with schistosomiasis as long as they are not exposed to the Poyang Lake water.
