The strategy adopted is based on the density dependent phenomenon of Facilitation, which hypothesizes that in an area where the vector species transmitting <jats:italic>Wuchereria bancrofti<\/jats:italic> are <jats:italic>Anopheles<\/jats:italic> mosquitoes, it is feasible to eliminate LF using Mass Drug Administration (MDA) because of the inability of <jats:italic>Anopheles<\/jats:italic> species to transmit low-density microfilaraemia. Even though earlier studies have shown <jats:italic>Anopheles species<\/jats:italic> can exhibit the process of Facilitation in West Africa, observations point towards the process of Limitation in certain areas, in which case vector control is recommended. Studies on <jats:italic>Anopheles<\/jats:italic> species in West Africa have also shown genetic differentiation, cryptic taxa and speciation, insecticide resistance and the existence of molecular and chromosomal forms, all of which could influence the vectorial capacity of the mosquitoes and ultimately the elimination goal. This paper outlines the uniqueness of LF vectors in West Africa and the challenges it poses to the 2020 elimination goal, based on the current MDA strategies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/1756-3305-5-259","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,14]],"date-time":"2012-11-14T11:14:14Z","timestamp":1352891654000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":71,"title":["Diversity and transmission competence in lymphatic filariasis vectors in West Africa, and the implications for accelerated elimination of Anopheles-transmitted filariasis"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Dziedzom K","family":"de Souza","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Benjamin","family":"Koudou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Louise A","family":"Kelly-Hope","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael D","family":"Wilson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Moses J","family":"Bockarie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniel A","family":"Boakye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"760_CR1","unstructured":"Uniting to combat Neglected Tropical Diseases: London Declaration on Neglected Tropical Diseases.http:\/\/unitingtocombatntds.org\/downloads\/press\/ntd_event_london_declaration_on_ntds.pdf,"},{"key":"760_CR2","volume-title":"Lymphatic Filariasis","author":"World Health Organization","year":"2012","unstructured":"World Health Organization: Fact Sheet No 102.
