    <p>The estimates are based on 50% confidence intervals of the posterior predictive distribution for 29 West and East African countries. Treatment needs were calculated based on previously published geostatistical model-based prevalence estimates <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001773#pntd.0001773-Schur1" target="_blank">[2]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001773#pntd.0001773-Schur2" target="_blank">[3]</a> and WHO guidelines <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001773#pntd.0001773-WHO1" target="_blank">[4]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001773#pntd.0001773-WHO2" target="_blank">[5]</a>.</p
