5How is onchocerciasis transmitted?
- Onchocerciasis is caused by Onchocerca volvulus,
a parasitic worm that lives for up to 14 years in
the human body. It is spread through the bite of
a black fly of the Simulium damnosum species
complex, which breeds in fast-flowing rivers and
streams. - When the fly bites, it deposits the larvae of a
parasitic worm, which matures to adulthood and
produces millions of tiny worms, called
microfilaria. Adults emerge after 8-12 days and
live for up to four weeks, during which they can
cover hundreds of kilometres in flight.

7What are the symptoms of onchocerciasis?
- When the microfilariae migrate throughout the
body and give rise to a variety of symptoms
rashes, lesions, intense itching and
depigmentation of the skin lymphadenitis, which
results in hanging groins and elephantiasis of
the genitals, general debilitation and serious
visual impairment, including blindness.
8How is onchocerciasis treated?
- Stromectol (Ivermectin) the safe, effective
drug capable of reducing the numbers of skin
microfilariae in infected people and resulting in
clinical improvement and decreased transmission
of infection. Stromectol medication is used to
treat certain parasitic roundworm infections.
