[Investigation of urinary schistosomiasis outbreak in the primary school of the village Guébo 2, Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire]. / Investigation d'un foyer épidémique de bilharziose urinaire dans l'école primaire du village de Guébo 2, Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.

We report the results of an outbreak investigation of urinary schistosomiasis in 2012 among school children at Guébo 2. Among the 250 school children, 107 (42.8%) had confirmed urinary schistosomiasis. Age ≥ 10y (OR = 2.6 [1.1 to 6.2]) and self-reported bathing in the river (OR = 14.0 [4.7 to 42.5]) were associated with the presence of S.h. in the adjusted analyses. A massive deworming of the population of Guébo-1&2 was conducted as epidemic-response.
