Molecular xenomonitoring for post-validation surveillance of lymphatic filariasis in Togo: no evidence for active transmission
BACKGROUND: Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a mosquito-borne filarial disease targeted for elimination by the year 2020. The Republic of Togo undertook mass treatment of entire endemic communities from 2000 to 2009 to eliminate the transmission of the disease and is currently the first sub-Saharan Afri...
