Predicting the risk and speed of drug resistance emerging in soil-transmitted helminths during preventive chemotherapy
Abstract Control of soil-transmitted helminths relies heavily on regular large-scale deworming of high-risk groups (e.g., children) with benzimidazole derivatives. Although drug resistance has not yet been documented in human soil-transmitted helminths, regular deworming of cattle and sheep has led...
