dc.description.abstract | Malaria transmission is high in western Kenya and the asymptomatic infected population plays a signifcant role in driving the transmission. Mathematical modelling and simulation programs suggest that interventions
targeting asymptomatic infections through mass testing and treatment (MTaT) or mass drug administration (MDA)
have the potential to reduce malaria transmission when combined with existing interventions. | en_US |
