Modeling the interruption of the transmission of soil-transmitted helminths by repeated mass chemotherapy of school-age children.

Modeling the interruption of the transmission of soil-transmitted helminths by repeated mass chemotherapy of school-age children.

The control or elimination of neglected tropical diseases has recently become the focus of increased interest and funding from international agencies through the donation of drugs. Resources are becoming available for the treatment of soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infection through school-based de...
