title: Cercarial dermatitis outbreak at a state park--Delaware, 1991.
abstract: On October 28, 1991, an employee of the Division of Public Health (DPH), Delaware Department of Health and Social Services, reported that her son and at least 10 other persons who had recently participated in a high school biology class field trip to Cape Henlopen State Park had contracted pruritic dermatitis. The Delaware Health Monitoring and Program Consultation Section conducted an investigation to confirm the reported presumptive diagnosis of cercarial dermatitis and to assess the extent of this outbreak.
