Where do you get guinea worm?

Guinea worm disease is caused by the parasitic worm Dracunculus medinensis, which is typically contracted by drinking water contaminated with larvae. These larvae are released into the water by copepods, tiny freshwater crustaceans that host the larvae. When people consume contaminated water, the larvae mature into adult worms in their bodies, causing painful symptoms as they emerge through the skin. The disease primarily occurs in rural areas of Africa where access to clean drinking water is limited.
