assumes that congenital surveillance programs were successfully implemented, and
the infected infants were treated with highly effective drugs. The effects of con-
genital surveillance are displayed in Figure 6.10. Congenital surveillance slightly
decreases the HUMAN INFECTION RATE and the number of people dying of this
disease. However, the impact is slight in terms of eliminating the disease.
Now that we have seen the impacts of different disease control strategies that are
carried out individually, we can explore the effects of an aggressive control strategy
that includes all of the control strategies previously detailed. The effects of the com-
bined control strategy are displayed in Figure 6.11. The combined strategy causes
almost the same effect on disease transmission as annual insecticide use. From this,
