Table 2.

Future strategies (2020 onwards) considered in the present study

Strategy name AS coverage PS VC Algorithm specificity (%)
MeanAS + VC (Imperfect Spec) Mean of 2015–2019 Continued Continued 99.93
MeanAS + VC Mean of 2015–2019 Continued Continued 100
MeanAS Mean of 2015–2019 Continued Stopped in 2021 100
MaxAS Max of 2000–2019 Continued Stopped in 2021 100
Stop2021 None from 2021 (mean in 2020) Continued Stopped in 2021 100

This table shows the five possible future strategies we simulated using the ensemble model. We denote the coverage of AS, assumptions around PS detection rates, the use of VC and the specificity of the AS algorithm in defining cases in the different columns

AS active screening, PS passive screening, VC vector control, Max maximum
