Lymphatic Filariasis (Commonly referred to as Elephantiasis) Program
What we plan to do
- Currently, there is a gap in post-elimination surveillance. NCHRD will be involved in post-elimination surveillance. Where there is disease recrudescence, NCHRD will be involved. NCHRD will focus on morbidity management in highly endemic areas.
- Empower communities in Lymphodema management.
- Environmental management.
