Onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis have long been recognised and prioritised as neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), with well established global elimination programmes, and are targeted for elimination as part of the WHO NTD road map for 2021–30. In contrast, loiasis and mansonellosis have largely been neglected, are not listed as NTDs, and have no large-scale control programmes.</p>
