Intestinal parasites are a global health problem. The World Health Organization recommends regular distribution of deworming drugs, targeting school aged children. This is effective for the children receiving the drugs but does not have an impact in the wider community. We aim to determine the best strategy for delivery of deworming drugs, to achieve the maximum benefit both for children and wider community, by directly comparing the benefits of a school-targeted vs a community-mass approach.

肠道寄生虫是一个全球性的健康问题。世界卫生组织建议定期分发驱虫药物，针对学龄儿童。这对接受药物的儿童是有效的，但对更广泛的社区没有影响。我们的目标是通过直接比较以学校为目标和以社区为目标的方法的好处，确定提供驱虫药物的最佳策略，从而为儿童和更广泛的社区实现最大的利益。
