Risk Perceptions and Acceptability of Genetically Modified Mosquitoes for Malaria Control in Mali, 2025

2026-05-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction: </h4> Malaria remains a major public health issue in sub-Saharan Africa, especially in Mali. Despite the promising prospects of genetically modified mosquitoes (GMMs), their use raises several concerns. Community engagement is essential to the success of this tool. We assessed the Malian population’s knowledge and perception of the risks associated with this technology. Methods The study was cond...
