Molecular and phylogenetic insights into the novel <i>Brugia</i> sp. in Sri Lanka with new evidence for zoonotic transmission

2026-07-21

Abstract excerpt

The World Health Organization (WHO) validated Sri Lanka had eliminated lymphatic filariasis as a public health problem in 2016, the second country in Southeast Asia to attain this status. However, post-validation surveillance has identified sporadic cases of brugian filariasis. The reemergence of Brugia malayi infections in Sri Lanka warrants urgent investigations. Recent studies have shown that the parasite resp...
