The Global Programme to Eliminate Lymphatic Filariasis (GPELF) has delivered over 8.2 billion cumulative treatments to more than 923 million people since 2000. The treatments target the parasites in the blood of infected people and prevent the risk of transmission in the community. Infections have been brought to such low levels in some areas that 649.1 million people no longer require MDA for this debilitating parasitic disease.
