PY - 2010 DA - 2010/10/14 TI - Changing trends in intestinal parasitic infections among long-term-residents and settled immigrants in Qatar JO - Parasites & Vectors SP - 98 VL - 3 IS - 1 AB - The rapid socio-economic development in Qatar in the last two decades has encouraged a mass influx of immigrant workers, the majority of whom originate from countries with low socio-economic levels, inadequate medical care and many are known to carry patent intestinal helminth and protozoan infections on arrival in Qatar. Some eventually acquire residency status but little is known about whether they continue to harbour infections.
