Theoretical Population Biology, 1976Abstract Eradication of schistosomiasis from an isolated community is discussed. A mathematical model is used to derive conditions under which eradication results from the administration of a single dose of drugs to the human population. It is shown that this mode of eradication is facilitated by a control program that is directed at such changes of ...
