Intestinal parasites were most common in the 11-20 age group (infection percentage 34.1%), in which parasitic infections were distributed as 13.4% for Entamoeba histolytica, 7.3% for Giardia lamblia, 5.4% for Ancylostoma duodenale, 3.8% for Trichuris trichura, 2.7% for Ascaris lumbricoides and 1.5% for Hymnologies nana.
