Assessment of Transmission in Trachoma Programs over Time Suggests No Short-Term Loss of Immunity

Trachoma programs have dramatically reduced the prevalence of the ocular chlamydia that cause the disease. Some have hypothesized that immunity to the infection may be reduced because of program success in reducing the incidence of infection, and transmission may then increase. Longitudinal studies...
