Human Onchocerciasis: Modelling the Potential Long-term Consequences of a Vaccination Programme

BACKGROUND: Currently, the predominant onchocerciasis control strategy in Africa is annual mass drug administration (MDA) with ivermectin. However, there is a consensus among the global health community, supported by mathematical modelling, that onchocerciasis in Africa will not be eliminated within...
