Amoebiasis prevention

To help prevent the spread of amoebiasis around the home:

• Wash hands thoroughly with soap and hot running water for at least 10 seconds after using the toilet or changing a baby’s diaper, and before handling food
• Clean bathrooms and toilets often. Pay particular attention to toilet seats and taps.
• Avoid sharing towels or face washers.
• Avoid raw vegetables when in endemic areas as they may have been fertilized using human feces.
• Boil water or treat with iodine tablets.
