At present, 10 of the 12 endemiccountries have started elimination activities. Mappingin all countries will be completed by 2004, and full MDAcoverage will be implemented in all countries by 2010. In2003 nearly 23.8 million people were covered by MDA.The geographical coverage of the Mekong-Plus PRG canbe seen in Figure 3.93 below.Figure 3.93 Mekong-Plus Programme Review Group: geographical coverage a by country in 20030.5%Indonesia b 100%Malaysia100%Myanmar b17.6%Philippines49.2%ThailandViet Nam7.4%0 25 50 75 100percentage of coverageabGeographical coverage = total population in IUs where MDA is taking place x 100/total population of all endemic IUs.Estimated at-risk population as denominator, LF mapping is in progress.
