Modeling the control of trypanosomiasis using trypanocides or insecticide-treated livestock.
<h4>Background</h4>In Uganda, Rhodesian sleeping sickness, caused by Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, and animal trypanosomiasis caused by T. vivax and T. congolense, are being controlled by treating cattle with trypanocides and/or insecticides. We used a mathematical model to identify tr...
