COMET-LF: A Compartmental Model of Dynamics of Infection, Disease, and Elimination Strategies for Lymphatic Filariasis

2024-09-28

Abstract excerpt

Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a mosquito-borne neglected tropical disease (NTD) caused by filarial worms. India accounted for 55% of the global population at risk of LF in 2021. The World Health Organization (WHO) has targeted LF elimination by 2030; however, India aims to achieve LF elimination prior to the global WHO NTD target. Mathematical models are useful tools to evaluate and guide elimination strategies. We...
