How Can Onchocerciasis Elimination in Africa Be Accelerated? Modeling the Impact of Increased Ivermectin Treatment Frequency and Complementary Vector Control
Suzanne Verver and others
Clinical Infectious Diseases, Volume 66, Issue suppl_4, 15 June 2018, Pages S267–S274, https://doi.org/10.1093/cid/cix1137
We used 2 mathematical models, ONCHOSIM and EPIONCHO, to simulate future trends in microfilarial prevalence for 80 different settings under different future treatment scenarios, including mass drug administration and vector control, assessing whether they lead to elimination of onchocerciasis.
