A contextual association between malaria and urbanization: Temporal and spatial analysis in Ghana

2022-08-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>In West Africa, malaria is a leading cause of disease-induced fatalities. While it is generally thought that urbanization reduces malaria incidence, the relationship between urbanicity, i.e., the impact of living in urban areas, and transmission remains unclear. This study aims to explore this association in Ghana, using eight district-level datasets comprising epidemiological, health,...
