Background: Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are the most common, and believed to be the
most 39 efficient, malaria intervention method. International funding is not sufficient to …

Mathematical modeling can serve to inform strategies for malaria eradication from different
levels of scale depending on the needs of the strategy and the granularity of the data …

| INTRODUCTION| of intervention strategies, and make verifiable predictions on what can be
expected from these strategies. For example, regions that have achieved high coverage of …

Background Global strategies to fight malaria consist of three components: medical
coverage scale-up in the affected regions, sustained control of the disease and increasing …

Changes in malaria endemicity under scaled-up ITN coverage in Africa can be predicted by
combining a malaria transmission model and a control model that relates ITN coverage …

Background Field studies are evaluating if mass drug administration (MDA) might shorten
the time to elimination of Plasmodium falciparum malaria, when vector control measures and …

Malaria is a mosquito-borne parasitic disease that can infect over 200 million individuals
annually (CDC). Mosquitoes act as a vector, transmitting the disease between humans …

We modeled the impact of bed‐net use and insecticide treated nets (ITNs), temperature, and
treatment on malaria transmission dynamics using ordinary differential equations. To …

Mathematical analyses and modelling have an important role informing malaria eradication
strategies. Simple mathematical approaches can answer many questions, but it is important …

Background Considerable declines in malaria have accompanied increased funding for
control since the year 2000, but historical failures to maintain gains against the disease …
