pubmed:abstractText |
Active case-finding programmes by mobile teams are the cornerstone of West African Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) control. Low attendance rates of screening and low uptake of treatment after diagnosis are major problems. The objectives of this survey were to explore community perception of HAT, to assess acceptability of control activities and to identify barriers amenable to intervention.
