A comparison of two mathematical models of the impact of mass drug administration on the transmission and control of schistosomiasis

The predictions of two mathematical models describing the transmission dynamics of schistosome infection and the impact of mass drug administration are compared. The models differ in their description of the dynamics of the parasites within the host population and in their representation of the stag...
