Overcoming language and cultural barriers: A graphical communication tool to perform a parasitological screening in two vulnerable populations from Argentina
This is an exploratory study of the application of a support tool for the detection of asymptomatic subjects carrying enteric parasites in two vulnerable populations in Argentina: a shantytown in the city of Buenos Aires and a rural Wichí indigenous community in the province of Chaco. The ethnic and...
