French term or phrase: foyers quiescents
La valeur ajoutée de l’approche régionale repose sur le fait qu’elle vient d’une part compléter les programmes nationaux en s’intéressant aux cibles non ou mal couvertes par ceux-ci du fait de leur spécificité épidémiologique.
L’intervention permet également de réduire les **foyers quiescents** de haute prévalence qui, s’ils ne sont pas pris en compte peuvent compromettre les efforts nationaux.
