“Test and not treat” for onchocerciasis control in a Loa loa endemic area

BACKGROUND: Implementation of ivermectin-based community treatment for onchocerciasis or lymphatic filariasis elimination has been delayed in Central Africa because of severe adverse events (SAEs), including death, in people with high levels of circulating Loa loa microfilariae (mf). LoaScope, a rap...
