dc.description | The expansion of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) transmission areas in Brazil raises questions concerning the country’s control strategies. The guidelines of the Brazilian Visceral Leishmaniasis Control Program (PVCLV) focus on decreases in morbidity and case-fatality, reservoir and vector control, and health education. This article assesses difficulties in implementing the measures recommended by the PVCLV, according to the program’s coordinators in large cities with canine and/or human transmission (Campinas, Bauru, Goiânia, Campo Grande, Fortaleza, and Belo Horizonte). Semi-structured interviews identified the following main problems: discontinuity of control activities, resistance to canine euthanasia by dog owners, and low coverage of chemical vector control. Conclusion: the interviews revealed numerous obstacles to implementation of the measures proposed by the PVCLV and a clear need to reassess Brazil’s VL policy. © 2016, Fundacao Oswaldo Cruz.
