Inferring a novel insecticide resistance metric and exposure variability in mosquito bioassays across Africa

2024-03-13

Abstract excerpt

Malaria claims approximately 500,000 lives each year, and insecticide-treated nets (ITNs), which kill mosquitoes that transmit the disease, remain the most effective intervention. However, resistance to pyrethroids, the primary insecticide class used in ITNs, has risen dramatically in Africa, making it difficult to assess the current public health impact of pyrethroid-ITNs. Past work has modelled the relation betw...
