The program had been carried out for five years. The positive rate of eggs of whipworm and ascaris in the population decreased from 64.7% and 52.1% to 2.7% and 4.1%, respectively, the mean increase in infection rates among population at 5 or 7 months after treatment was 2.68 (0.86-5.74)% and 6.94(1.72-17.27)%, respectively.
