Malaria transmission risk in the city of Accra, Ghana: vector behavior and distribution

2025-02-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Urban malaria transmission in sub-Saharan Africa is often underestimated, emphasizing the need for research on vector distribution, abundance, behavior, and infectivity in cities. Since 2003, urban malaria transmission has intensified. Monitoring <italic>Anopheles</italic>populations is crucial for developing effective interventions. This study examined the biti...
