Identifying optimal threshold statistics for elimination of hookworm using a stochastic simulation model

Abstract Background There is an increased focus on whether mass drug administration (MDA) programmes alone can interrupt the transmission of soil-transmitted helminths (STH). Mathematical models can be used to model these interventions and are increasingly being implemented to inform investigators a...
