Schistosomiasis in Ghana from baseline to now
Background Schistosomiasis is a major public health problem in Ghana, significantly impacted by the construction of dams during the 1960s that resulted in the creation of Lake Volta. The Ghana Health Service launched the Neglected Tropical Disease program in 2008, expanding baseline disease mapping first initiated in 2007 to additional geographic areas in 2008 and 2010 and simultaneously rolling out mass drug administration (MDA). Significant red…
Re-assessment of schistosomiasis in nine endemic districts with cluster sampling in Sierra Leone
Background Baseline mapping showed that schistosomiasis was highly/moderately endemic in nine districts in Sierra Leone. Mass drug administration (MDA) with praziquantel started in 2009, and after multiple rounds of treatment, an impact assessment was conducted in 2016 followed by a second re-assessment in 2022 using cluster sampling to provide more granular data for refining chiefdom (sub-district) treatment strategies. Methods On average, 20 ru…
