Results: The overall prevalence of Giardia infection in this population is 15.1%. Males had higher prevalence rate of 24.2% compared to female counterpart (6.8%). The highest infection rate was observed in school children aged between 8-9 years (24.4%). Generally, formalin ether concentration techniques had shown a higher percentage of detection rate compared to direct fecal smear.
