Views on the municipalization of lymphatic filariasis control in greater metropolitan Recife

description Lymphatic filariasis is caused by the nematodes Brugia malayi, Brugia timori, and Wuchereria bancrofti. The disease occurs in developing countries and is more frequent in urban areas. An estimated 4 billion people live in at-risk areas. In Brazil the endemic is caused by W. bancrofti and was first documented in 1878. It was first detected in Recife in 1952. Currently, Recife and Belém are the only cities in Brazil where the endemic is considered a public health problem. The objectives of this study are to discuss the epidemiology and control of lymphatic filariasis and review its control since it was reported by Rachou in 1952. We analyze the "campanhista" or campaign-oriented model employed by the Sucam/FNS institutional program, as well as several proposed innovative methods. We present available strategies for control of filariasis through primary health care services, decentralization to the local level (or "municipalization"), and community-based health programs.
