Reducing malaria burden and accelerating elimination with long-lasting systemic insecticides: a modelling study of three potential use cases

Abstract Background While bed nets and insecticide spraying have had significant impact on malaria burden in many endemic regions, outdoor vector feeding and insecticide resistance may ultimately limit their contribution to elimination and control campaigns. Complementary vector control methods such...
