Spatial clusters with a high infection rate of schistosomiasis detected in the period 2009–2014 using the Poisson model by flexible scanning. The cluster length limit was 15. Clusters detected by flexible spatial scan statistic act as irregular shapes and decreased from 14 in 2009 to 4 in 2014 and the number of villages within every most likely cluster fluctuated slightly with narrow range from 10 (in 2010 and 2013) to 13 (in 2013)
