Potential use of antibodies to provide an earlier indication of lymphatic filariasis resurgence in post–mass drug ad ministration surveillance in American Samoa
BACKGROUND: Under the Global Programme to Eliminate Lymphatic Filariasis (LF), American Samoa conducted 7 rounds of mass drug administration (MDA) between 2000 and 2006. The territory passed transmission assessment surveys (TASs) in 2011 (TAS-1) and 2015 (TAS-2). In 2016, the territory failed TAS-3,...
