Integration of irradiation with cytoplasmic incompatibility to facilitate a lymphatic filariasis vector elimination approach

1 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mass drug administration (MDA) is the emphasis of an ongoing global lymphatic filariasis (LF) elimination program by the World Health Organization, in which the entire 'at risk' human population is treated annually with anti-filarial drugs. However, there is evidence that the MDA strategy may not be equally appropriate in all areas of LF transmission, leading to calls for the augmentation of MDA with...
