MODE OF TRANSMISSIONMODE OF TRANSMISSIONFilariasis is transmitted by the bite of Filariasis is transmitted by the bite of
infected vector mosquitoes. The parasite is infected vector mosquitoes. The parasite is
deposited near the site of puncture. It deposited near the site of puncture. It
passes through the punctured skin or may passes through the punctured skin or may
penetrate the skin on its own and finally penetrate the skin on its own and finally
reach the lymphatic system. The dynamics reach the lymphatic system. The dynamics
of transmission depends upon the man of transmission depends upon the man
