What Is Ringworm?
Ringworm isn’t a worm. It’s a skin infection that’s caused by moldlike fungi that live on the dead tissues of your skin, hair, and nails. You can get it in any of these places -- and on your scalp.
When you get it between your toes, it’s what people call athlete’s foot. If it spreads to your groin, it’s known as jock itch.

Ok, so when it’s spread to your brain, as in Ms. Cortez’ case, what is it then to be named?
Does she mean tape worm? What the hell does she mean? Ring worm is relatively minor skin infection. It is completely unrelated to poverty.
She’s an idiot.
Ringworm is easily fought by allowing a piece of copper (pennies or a small piece of copper pipe) to set in shallow vinegar for a few days till they turn green. Then daub the vinegar on the ringworm.
It really works.
Exactly. She should ask Michelle about jock itch.
