Spread of anti-malarial drug resistance: Mathematical model with implications for ACT drug policies
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Most malaria-endemic countries are implementing a change in anti-malarial drug policy to artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT). The impact of different drug choices and implementation strategies is uncertain. Data from many epi...
