Scale up of a Plasmodium falciparum elimination program and surveillance system in Kayin State, Myanmar

2017-12-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Myanmar has one of the largest malaria burdens in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS). Throughout the GMS, Plasmodium falciparum parasites are increasingly resistant to artemisinin combination therapies. Given that there are no current alternative treatment therapies, one proposed solution to the threat of untreatable P. falciparum malaria is to eliminate the parasite from the region. Several...
