This threat to the island\u2019s human and plant health and biodiversity continues to proliferate in twelve of the country\u2019s provinces, favored by suitable climatic conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The action protocols implemented by the National Civil Defense in coordination with the Ministry of Public Health and the Institute of Plant Health, similar to those that have been put into effect in other affected countries in the area, have been ineffective in controlling this vector that proliferates uncontrollably.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cControl is a burning issue, we are talking about one of the most harmful plagues in the world,\u201d explains Luis \u00c1lvarez, curator of Malacology at the Felipe Poey Museum of the University of Havana.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the areas adjacent to the Atunera 2 apartment blocks, located in the capital district of Coj\u00edmar, Habana del Este municipality, the African Snail swarms freely, creating an environment of extreme concern among residents of the area. They must carry out their daily lives avoiding the danger that direct contact with this mollusk implies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWindows have to be closed tightly, because it is a huge amount,\u201d Nelia Acosta, a neighbor of the area, tells us, while another resident, Odalys G\u00f3mez, defines her abundance as \u201ca herd.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neighborhood fears regarding the proliferation of this plague are not unfounded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Communication campaigns have informed the population that the African Snail is a transmitting agent of lethal diseases for animal and human health. \u00c1lvarez reaffirms it emphatically through science: \u201cIt is the best vector that exists on the planet of Angiostrongylus cantonensis, a parasitic nematode that causes eosinophilic meningitis.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This type of meningitis is more frequent in the pediatric patient, which is why the child population is especially at risk. \u201cIf there are cases of eosinophilic meningitis in Cuba, there is a 99.5 probability that the causal germ is Angiostrongylus cantonensis,\u201d Alvarez adds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, Dr. Liliana Senda, master in Infectology, points out that the African Snail can also be a reservoir of Gram negative germs such as Aeromona and also produce abdominal angioestrongilosis, a disease that affects the adult population.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPersons should not come into contact with the snail, except for its consumption,\u201d says \u00c1lvarez, who says that this reduces the risk of this vector for human health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of the educational campaigns aimed at the population, the danger of direct contact with the animal has been indicated. \u201cThrough the media, Cubans have been explained that they should manipulate the animal with gloves and to eliminate it, a hole must be dug, it must be incinerated and it must be covered with lime,\u201d says Senda.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, despite the information issued by the Civil Defense and the Ministry of Public Health regarding how to deal with this plague, many feel that much more can be done. \u201cYou have to give more publicity to this so that people become aware and responsible,\u201d says Eva Mart\u00ednez, a neighbor from Atunera 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Others affected demand the presence in the localities of the organizations involved in the fight against this vector, as well as the resources necessary to eliminate this plague with individual effort.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think that a representation of plant health and public health should be present in the affected areas to give the neighbors more accurate information and also provide lime,\u201d says Berta T\u00e9llez, one of the affected residents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the high degree of infestation due to the uncontrolled proliferation of this mollusk, Cuban health authorities report no cases of infectious disease as a result of the germs transmitted by the African Snail. \u201cNo specific harm has been proven by the Angiostrongylus,\u201d says Alvarez.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This has been an element carefully investigated by the Pedro Kour\u00ed Institute of Tropical Medicine and Plant Health specialists, supported by the evidence that there are no reported cases related to the infestation by Angiostrongylus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTo date, no mollusk that has been sent to the Pedro Kouri Institute has been infested with meningoencephalitis, stongylosis or Gram-negative bacteria,\u201d says Senda.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the relative peace of mind provided by the absence of reports on effects to human health, the spread of the African Snail is far from being controlled in Cuba.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learning how to live in a responsible way with this dangerous plague and trying new strategies developed by the Civil Defense, seem to be the only viable options so that this serious problem doesn\u2019t have greater consequences.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Giant African Snail, one of the hundred most harmful invasive species in the world according to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, has become a problem for Cuba.
