| 2017 || October || Budget || SCI estimates that it would cost US$0.24 on average per additional treatment delivered to a school-aged child.<ref name="Schistosomiasis Control Initiative: Supplementary Information"/> ||
|-
| 2017 || November || GiveWell updates review on SCI and estimates that it could productively use roughly US$30 million more than it expects to receive to deliver treatments to school-aged children over the next three years. It could use almost three times this amount if it were to follow {{w|World Health Organization}} guidelines, which recommend treating adults in certain circumstances. However, GiveWell does not recommend funding to treat adults because it has not seen sufficient evidence on the impact of treating adults.<ref>{{cite web |title=Schistosomiasis Control Initiative - November 2017 Version |url=https://www.givewell.org/charities/schistosomiasis-control-initiative/November-2017-version |website=givewell.org |accessdate=4 May 2019}}</ref>
