To prevent infection with Clonorchis sinensis, commonly known as the Chinese liver fluke, it is essential to avoid consuming raw or undercooked Freshwater Fish, particularly from regions where the parasite is endemic. Ensuring proper cooking of fish at temperatures that kill the larvae, practicing good hygiene, and avoiding contamination of water sources with human or animal feces can also help reduce the risk of transmission. Additionally, educating communities about the risks associated with eating infected fish can further mitigate infection rates.
Clonorchis sinensis is a parasitic flatworm that infects the bile ducts of humans and other mammals. It can cause a liver fluke infection known as clonorchiasis, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, jaundice, and liver damage. It is acquired by consuming raw or undercooked freshwater fish harboring the parasite's larvae.
