Improving the efficiency of reactive case detection for malaria elimination in southern Zambia: a cross-sectional study

2020-04-28

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background </bold>Reactive case detection (RCD) seeks to enhance malaria surveillance and control by identifying and treating parasitaemic individuals residing near index cases. In Zambia, this strategy starts with passive detection of symptomatic incident malaria cases at local health facilities or by community health workers, with subsequent home visits to screen-and-treat resid...
