Measuring changes in <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> census population size in response to sequential malaria control interventions

2023-05-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Here we introduce a new endpoint “census population size” to evaluate the epidemiology and control of Plasmodium falciparum infections, where the parasite, rather than the infected human host, is the unit of measurement. To calculate census population size, we rely on a definition of parasite variation known as multiplicity of infection (MOI var ), based on the hyper-diversity of the var mult...
