The program's stated objectives include raising specific polyclonal antibodies to microfilariae surface antigens in mice and rabbits.1The program will use genetic engineering techniques to produce large quantities of the surface antigens of the infective larvae and microfilariae of Onchocerca volvulus for testing as candidate vaccines.1

Districts, regions and facilities the program's own documents name, with what the document says it did there. · Source: sentences in the program's documents
Districts, regions and facilities named in the program's own documents, not verified sites. Place dots exist for Malawi and Guatemala only so far.
Sample Built from district names in Malawi documents while the full place data loads; it is not yet the finished place list.

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. · Source: award and document years
Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from first seen; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
Who started the program, and which administration it began under. Timing only; it does not say who started it. · Source: initiative records, start year
Began during the George H. W. Bush administration (1989–1993). Based on its first seen, 1991. This places the program in time only; it does not mean that administration started it.
No document or official record says which initiative or administration launched this program.
Organizations that ran this program, from award records and document authors. Prime and sub roles are not split yet. · Source: award and document records
