How long does a tapeworm live in you??

How long does a tapeworm live in you?? and can it kill you??(seriously)

Answer #1

Yeah, and it can lay eggs and make new little tapeworms inside you.

Those eggs might infect other people, if you use a common bathroom and don’t use germicide.

It won’t kill you. But it weakens your body. For people in famine areas, for people who have other diseases and who don’t have acces to medical care, a tapeworm can be the death blow.

Answer #2

About 4 feet. Ha!

Answer #3

It can live for YEARS if you have one go get treated.
