The Natural History of Trachoma Infection and Disease in a Gambian Cohort with Frequent Follow-Up

BACKGROUND: The natural history of ocular Chlamydia trachomatis infections in endemic communities has not been well characterised and is an important determinant of the effectiveness of different mass treatment strategies to prevent blindness due to trachoma. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: A multis...
