2011 MDA was still ongoing during drafting of this paper so these are projected figures.
Sikasso district in the original 59 was split into two districts to become a total of 60 districts.
Figures in brackets represent the cumulative geographical coverage.
Figures include the districts where schoolchildren were treated with ALB together with schistosomiasis MDA.
