Surveillance for peri-elimination trachoma recrudescence: Exploratory studies in Ghana

INTRODUCTION: To date, eleven countries have been validated as having eliminated trachoma as a public health problem, including Ghana in 2018. Surveillance for recrudescence is needed both pre- and post-validation but evidence-based guidance on appropriate strategies is lacking. We explored two pote...
