A bizarre incident occurred on a bus. The bus was full, it was an ordinary day, and the driver drove quietly. One of the passengers noticed something strange on the driver’s coat; Upon closer inspection, he discovered several insects crawling over the driver’s neck and ears. The man was amazed beyond imagination that there were hundreds of them. He began recording the entire event and then posted the footage on Facebook. Primo Onipa, the passenger who recorded the incident, said in a Facebook post that the insects were lice and that he wanted to humiliate the bus driver because he was so upset and disgusted by what happened.
The driver smelled terrible, according to Primo, and appeared not to have bathed or changed his clothes in more than a year. In fact, the unfortunate driver can be seen in the photos as if he has gotten used to these little parasites and they no longer seem to affect him. After watching the video on Facebook, netizens expressed their anger quite clearly, saying that a man with lice should not be in charge of a bus that carries a lot of passengers. Lice are tiny insects that live on the scalp and feed on blood. When they eat, they shoot saliva into the skin, causing itching. The louse is the size of a sesame seed and is gray/brown in color.
Due to optimal temperature conditions, the female releases a chemical that ensures the attachment of the eggs to the hair; the eggs are attached to 3–4 millimeters from the base of the hair. Usually this occurs behind the ears and in the occipital area of the neck; At the beginning, during the first phase of the disease, itching may not be present. The chance of superinfection increases if the wounds are scratched. Because they are small and fast, lice are difficult to detect. However, they can eventually be “caught” by covering the infected area with tape. Lice are one of the worst parasites for humans, which has a negative impact on self-esteem and self-image. According to experts, lice are not a sign of poverty or poor hygiene. Lice can exist on the cleanest of people. The main problem is that they can transmit various diseases and are transmitted from person to person.
