Jasna Basaric-Keys, director of IRD's Health sector, and Dr. Julia Albright, IRD senior health adviser found that in elementary schools in Indonesia where students were treated with de-worming pills and also were given intensive education in health and hygiene, the cure rate was twice as high as schools where the students received only the medication.

Albright said about the findings, "Results from our first study in 2005 indicated that behavior played a major role in children's ability to stay healthy and free of worms.But our second study released earlier this year gave incontrovertible proof that this is the case."

She emphasized, "It is so important that children receive the de-worming medication, but equally important that they are trained on how to stay clean and healthy."
