Human African trypanosomiasis transmission, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo.
EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES(2006)
Abstract
To investigate the epidemiology of human African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo, 2 entomologic surveys were conducted in 2005. Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and human-blood meals were found in tsetse fly midguts, which suggested active disease transmission. Vector control should be used to improve human African trypanosomiasis control efforts.
