PART B_2

Without the use of any medicine or vaccines, the strategy to eliminate the Guinea worm disease has been consistent: public education. The villagers used to believe that either witchcraft or eating bad meat had caused the disease. Now, they are aware that it comes from ponds, their source of water. The villagers are also being taught how to use simple water filters. In 1986, an estimated number of 3.5 million cases of Guinea worm disease were recorded in 21 countries in Asia and Africa. The number decreased to 512 in 2012, affecting only four countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Together with the US chemical company Dupont, the Carter Center developed a cloth filter that was highly effective and could be distributed cheaply. Through filtration of drinking water using these fine clothes, the villagers were able to prevent the worms from entering the human body.
