A Smart Investment: The Health, Education, and Economic Returns of Malaria Chemoprevention in School-Aged Children Across Ten High-Burden Countries

2026-03-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Malaria imposes societal costs beyond health, including substantial effects on education, yet economic evaluations often overlook these broader impacts. We conducted a cross-sectoral benefit-cost analysis of malaria chemoprevention in school-aged children (SAC) across ten high-burden sub-Saharan African countries. Using recent trial data, we estimated impacts on malaria morbidity, mortality, sch...
