Country-specific time series in the SI! For both all forms of treatment and the proportion of treatment that is sought at public (government-run) facilities.

New work in @PLOSGPH from IDM’s @battle_kt and @MalariaAtlas Project tracks the treatment-seeking for fever over 30 years for 151 countries. Despite substantial improvements in critical areas, rates vary and may plateau without continued investment https://t.co/stzWQyALqK

Interesting cost analysis of the incremental costs of larval source management and housing improvements in Malawi. Useful discussion points about cost drivers! Congratulations @MphaDSP and colleagues on this work!

So excited to share our recently published paper on the #cost of community-led larval source management+house improvement for #malaria control. Read it on https://t.co/a6OE2DEcWN. My first personal fellowship. Grateful to my supervisors, co-authors, @wellcometrust for funding.

Anyone who missed @BobVerity2's #GEM2021 talk on SIMPLEGEN malaria genetic epi simulator ( https://t.co/l4UNW6qlZo) he is looking to collab with people who have a transmission model, empiric datasets, ongoing/planned studies where use cases can be defined, or time/interest to code

#Malaria elimination will require investment to deliver safer & more effective treatment. Is it worth it? A great analysis by @devinefy suggests it is, with main beneficiaries being patients and their households #vivax #primaquine
