Excerpt
Most authorities are agreed that the best approach to the control of bilharziasis is through an attack upon the molluscan intermediate host (WHO Expert Committee on Bilharziasis, 1961, 1965; World Health Organization, 1965). This opinion, however, has been based upon theoretical considerations and upon the failure of other methods almost as much as upon the demonstrated success of snail control. It seems probable that transmission has been interrupted more frequently by this method than can be demonstrated by acceptable scientific and statistical analysis, but to our knowledge only the results obtained in the Philippines (Pesigan & Hairston, 1961) are backed by an adequate control area as well as by a statistically significant decline in prevalence in the younger age-groups of children.
