JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A Duval County mother said her son contracted pinworms at New Berlin Elementary School, adding that the first grader came home with the infection at the end of September, leading to a difficult experience for her family.
The mother, who wished to remain anonymous, said she had to wash everything in the house in hot water daily to prevent the spread of pinworm eggs. “It’s been a headache,” she said.
