Guinea Worm Close to Eradication The end of Guinea worm disease is within reach. When The Carter Center began leading the campaign to eradicate Guinea worm in 1986, there were an estimated 3.5 million cases of the disease in 20 countries in Africa and Asia. Today, there are fewer than 5,000 cases in six African countries—Sudan, Ghana, Mali, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Niger—making Guinea worm disease poised to be the next disease after smallpox to be eradicated.
