A Combined School Survey and Reactive Case Detection Reveals Minimal Local Transmission of Malaria in the Highlands Region of Papua New Guinea 2019

2024-10-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background The Highlands of Papua New Guinea are non-endemic for malaria compared to the rest of the country. This study aimed to explore the local transmission of malaria in the Highlands through a cross-sectional school survey coupled with reactive case detection. Methods Between July and November 2019, 5575 students and 1048 household members were screened for malaria using Rapid D...
