Assessing strategies against gambiense sleeping sickness through mathematical modeling
- Abstract:
-
Background Control of gambiense sleeping sickness relies predominantly on passive and active screening of people, followed by treatment.
Methods Mathematical modeling explores the potential of 3 complementary interventions in high- and low-transmission settings.
Results Intervention strategies that included vector control are predicted to halt transmission most quickly. Targeted active screening, with better and more focused ...
