Good evening,
Here is what the ministerial guide says:
"For contacts in daycare or sometimes in schools, it is recommended to treat only those persons in whom worms have been seen or in whom the scotch tape test shows the presence of eggs or microscope. These people should follow the hygiene measures described above.
Exceptionally, treatment of all contacts in the community may be considered following the recommendations of the Public Health Department
