The Ministry of Health warned against the spread of lice among students in Israel, referring to the prevalence of lice among children and students, the head of the Department of Adolescent, Youth and School Health in the Ministry of Health of Iran warned against the symptoms, ways of infection and the need for timely diagnosis and treatment of this parasitic infection. Mohamed Moradi, head of this group at the Ministry of Health, announced on Thursday, November 5, that lice are one of the most common parasitic infections in children, and its most important symptom is severe itching of the scalp. According to him, this contamination may cause fatigue, restlessness and sleep disturbances in the students and consequently affect concentration and academic performance. According to the explanation of this official at the Ministry of Health, the most important way to transmit lice is direct head-to-head contact with an infected person. Sharing items such as combs, brushes, hats, scarves, towels, pillows and pajamas can also contribute to the transmission of infection. Moradi asked families to check their children's hair, especially in the areas behind the ears and the back of the neck, in case of persistent itchy scalp or suspicious symptoms. Correct diagnosis is very important, as the flakes caused by dandruff are sometimes mistaken for lice eggs.
