A case for schistosomiasis vaccine Although, there is currently no vaccine available for human use against schistosomiasis, strong evidence from human field studies and experimental animal models of schistosomiasis support the feasibility of developing of an effective vaccine for long term protection [19, 20].
Why is it nearly impossible to develop a vaccine for parasitic diseases?
Why is it more difficult to develop a vaccine for parasites than for many viruses? Parasites go through a series of life stages and occupy several different niches in the body. They’ve also developed clever mechanisms to evade the immune system. So parasitic infections are the ultimate challenge.

Can metazoans live everywhere?
Although a few metazoans can survive temporarily in the absence of oxygen, it is believed that multi-cellular organisms cannot spend their entire life cycle without free oxygen. Deep seas include some of the most extreme ecosystems on Earth, such as the deep hypersaline anoxic basins of the Mediterranean Sea.
