[Investigation of urinary schistosomiasis outbreak in the primary school of the village 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.
