Are alternative strategies required to accelerate the global elimination of lymphatic filariasis? Insights from mathematical models

<p><strong>Background</strong> With the 2020 target year for elimination of lymphatic filariasis (LF) approaching, there is an urgent need to assess how long mass drug administration (MDA) programs with annual ivermectin + albendazole (IA) or diethylcarbamazine + albendazole (DA) w...
