Editing Cysticercosis (section)

===Limitations===
Even with the concurrent treatment of humans and pigs, complete elimination is hard to achieve. In one study conducted in 12 villages in Peru, both humans and pigs were treated with praziquantel and oxfendazole, with the coverage of more than 75% in humans and 90% in pigs<ref>Garcia, H.H., 2002. "Effectiveness of an interventional control program for human and porcine ''Taenia solium'' cysticercosis in field conditions." In: International Health. Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, p. 250.</ref> The result shows a decrease in prevalence and incidence in the intervention area; however the effect did not completely eliminate ''T. solium''. The possible reason includes the incomplete coverage and re-infection.<ref>{{cite book |author=Gilman, R.H. |author2=Garcia, H.H. |author3=Gonzalez, A.E. |author4=Dunleavy, M. |author5=Verastegui, M. |chapter=Short cuts to development: methods to control the transmission of cysticercosis in developing countries |editor-last=García |editor-first=H.H. |editor2-last=Martínez |editor2-first=M. |title=''Taenia solium'' taeniasis/cysticercosis |publisher=Editorial Universo |location=Lima |year=1999 |isbn=978-9972910203 |pages=313–326 }}</ref> Even though ''T. solium ''could be eliminated through mass treatment of human and porcine population, it is not sustainable.<ref name=Gonzalez03 /> Moreover, both tapeworm carriers of humans and pigs tend to spread the disease from endemic to non-endemic areas resulting in periodic outbreaks of cysticercosis or outbreaks in new areas.<ref>{{cite journal |vauthors=Margono SS, Subahar R, Hamid A, et al. |title=Cysticercosis in Indonesia: epidemiological aspects |journal=Southeast Asian J.
