Community participation in the control of filariasis.

K N Panicker1, V Dhanda.   

Abstract

A programme was launched in 1986 for the control of brugian filariasis in an area of high endemicity in southern India. Sustained community involvement was achieved by integrating economic measures to improve the lot of the people with the creation of widespread awareness about the cause of the disease and about the possibilities of combating it.
