Abstract
The aim of the study was analysis of the behavioral factors contributing to the spread of diphyllobothriasis in Yakutia. The results of a survey of accessible respondents from Yakutsk and 32 municipal districts of the republic showed that among the population of the republic, traditions of eating raw and lightly salted home-salted fish are preserved.
We need the widespread introduction of wastewater disinfection technologies, improving the quality of treatment, monitoring fish products, conduct a qualitative helminthological examination of the population, verification of effectiveness of deworming and inform the population about the methods for preventing parasitic infection.
