The main problem in preventing Guinea worm disease in the Nigerian village was human resistance to change. The villagers were not open to change their traditional way of collecting water, which was contaminated with the Guinea worm larvae. It took a lot of effort to educate and convince them to use a cloth filter to remove the worm larvae from their drinking water.
