Do we have any data on the base rate of parasite infections in Lagos?

Depends where -just found a paper showing 54% of school children tested by sample (not seeking medical attention) in at least one area of Lagos. Probably lower in adults but it's not a sub-1% number or even close to it. So were the results due to the anti-parasitic action or something else?
