Table 5.

Time to 2 % target prevalence based on antigen-detection diagnostics. Mean ± SD of program duration (in years) required to reach a target Schistosoma haematobium infection prevalence ≤ 2 % (T(f C, τ)). The panels and intervention values are the same as in Table 4 but using worm antigen-test diagnostics to identify post-treatment infection prevalence
