In a clinic of National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. A dozen patients died in a year. Some fall into comas. Some are paralyzed down one side of their body and can’t walk in a straight line. Some lost the ability to speak and many fall into violent seizures.

We already know that tapeworms are there in every adult’s intestine. The length of the tapeworm extends about 21 feet. But a strange fact, when these worms become adult, tapeworms spent time as larvae in large cysts, these larvae losts their way and ends up in the brain causing a disease named neurocysticercosis.
