Man is the definite host and mosquito is the intermediate host of Bancroftian and Brugian filariasis. The adult filarial worm lives in lymphatic vessels whereas microfilaria lives in peripheral blood and is able to infect mosquitoes when they come to feed. This infection causes lymphangitis, lymphadenitis, elephantiasis of genitals, legs and arms and cause tropical eosinophilia due to hypersensitivity. BURDEN OF DISEASE : BURDEN OF DISEASE Lymphatic filaria is prevalent in 18 states and union territories. Bancrftian filariasis is widely distributed while brugian filariasis caused by Brugia malayi is restricted to 6 states - UP, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Gujarat. The WHO has estimated that 600 million people are at risk of infection in South east Asia and 60 million are actually infected in the region (WHO-SEARO 1999). There are about 454 million people (75.6%) at the risk of infection with 48 million (80%) infected with parasite are contributed only by India. ECONOMIC LOSS : ECONOMIC LOSS About 1.2 billion man-days are lost due to filariasis every year leading to an economic loss of Rs. 3500 crore. INDICES OF FILARIA : INDICES OF FILARIA Parasitological indices: 1. Microfilaria Rate: % of persons showing Mf in their peripheral blood in a sampled population; 2. Filarial Endemicity Rate: % of persons examined showing microfilariae in blood, or disease manifestation or both; 3. Microfilarial Density: No. of Mf per unit volume of blood in samples from individual persons; 4. Average Infestation Rate: Average number of Mf per positive slide. Entomological indices: : Entomological indices: 1. Vector density; 2. % of mosquitoes positive for all stages of development; 3. % of mosquitoes positive for infective larvae; 4. Types of breeding places. Slide 8: NATIONAL HEALTH POLICY "Elimination of Lymphatic filariasis by 2015" PROGRAMME The National Filaria Control Programme was launched in 1955. The activities were mainly confined to urban areas. However, the programme has been extended to rural areas since 1994. OBJECTIVES 1. Reduction of the problem in un-surveyed areas; and2. Control in urban areas through recurrent anti-larval and anti-parasitic measures. CONTROL STRATEGY : CONTROL STRATEGY 1. Vector Control through anti-larval spray/application at weekly intervals with appropriate larvicides;2. Biological control through larvivorous fishes;3. Enviromental engineering through source reduction and water management;4. Anti-parasitic measures through diagnosis and "treatment of microfilaria carriers and cases; and5. Information, Education, and Communication to generate community awareness. ANTI-MOSQUITO AND ANTI-LARVAL MEASURES : ANTI-MOSQUITO AND ANTI-LARVAL MEASURES One or two round of residual insecticide spray with DDT in areas which is known to be endemic for filariasis. Anti-larval measures with temephos in prescribed dosage in water storage tanks every week and Application of Mineral Larvidcidal oils on water surface are practiced. NATIONAL FILARIA CONTROL PROGRAMME (NFCP) : NATIONAL FILARIA CONTROL PROGRAMME (NFCP) National Filaria control Programme is operative in filarial endemic urban areas to cover 48 million population through 206 Filaria Control Units and 199 Filaria Clinics. 27 Filaria Survey Units carry out delimitation surveys. The strategy includes: ♦ Recurrent weekly antilarval operations and biological control of vectors through larvivorous fish ♦ Source reduction through environmental and water management ♦ Diagnosis and treatment of micro-filaria carriers and management of cases ♦ IEC for community awareness Slide 12: With a view to make efforts towards Elimination of Lymphatic Fialariasis and consequent to recommendation of revised filaria control strategy of Single Dose Mass Drug Administration, a pilot project to study feasibility of annual single dose DEC mass drug administration has been initiated in 13 identified districts in 7 States in 1997. These include East Godavari and Srikakulum (Andhra Pradesh), Darbhanga and Siwan (Bihar), Allaphuza and Kozhikode (Kerala), Khurda (now in Balasore) and Puri (Orissa), South Arcot (Cuddalore) and North Arcot (Villupuram) in Tamil Nadu, Gorakhpur and Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) and Purulia (West Bengal). Slide 13: A pilot project on co-administration of DEC & Albendazole as Annual Mass Drug administration strategy has been taken in collaboration with NAMP and NICD in identified areas of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Orissa. A National Task Force for Lymphatic Filariasis Elimination has been constituted under the chairmanship of Director General of Health Services, Government of India. Slide 14: The National Filaria Control Programme was launched in 1955. Following measures are undertaken in the programme: (i) Delimitation of the problem in hitherto un-surveyed areas, control in urban areas through recurrent anti larval measures and anti-parasitic measures by 206 control units and 199 clinics giving treatment with diethyl carbamazine (DEC) to clinical cases and microfilaria carriers. Number of Micro-Filaria (M.F) carriers and disease cases detected during the last four years by the control units and filaria clinics are as follows: - Slide 15: Filaria Day: During 1997, in view of the recommendations made in support of revised single day DEC mass therapy as a supplement to existing NFCP strategy in highly endemic areas, it was proposed to implement this strategy in 13 districts on a pilot basis. However, eight districts were covered in the states of Kerala, Orissa, U.P. and West Bengal during November 1997 and in the month of August, 1997 in Tamil Nadu by observing Filaria day. Approximately 49.7 to 94% coverage (achievement) was observed in these districts by giving single day DEC therapy. The centre provides DEC for the mass therapy campaign and cash assistance for IEC to the states through Regional Directors. Filaria day observance is a continuing 5 year project implemented by the states in the high endemic districts. Slide 16: CONCLUSION The government of India has taken up the control measure to prevent and control the disease. The National Health Policy has an objective of eliminating filariasis by 2015.The efforts of the Global Programme to Eliminate LF are estimated to have already prevented 6.6 million new filariasis cases from developing in children, and to have stopped the progression of the disease in another 9.5 million people who have already contracted it.
