General Strategy for Prevention and Control of VBDs • Early diagnosis and complete treatment • (No specific drugs against Dengue, Chikungunya and J.E.) • Integrated vector Management (IRS, LLIN, fish, chemical and bio-larvicide, source reduction) • Supportive intervention – (Vaccination only against J.E.) • Annual MDA (only against LF) • Behaviour change communication

Elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis – (1) Elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis in India by 2015. The twin pillars of LF elimination strategy include: Transmission control by Annual MDA for 5-7 years or more with DEC + Albendazole Disability Prevention and Management by Home based management of lymphoedema cases and up-scaling of hydrocele operations
