Population-wide drug-based strategies for malaria elimination

Population-Wide Drug-Based Strategies for Malaria Elimination: Assessing impact, operational requirements, and cost across three African settings

Population-wide drug-based strategies are potentially powerful accelerators for malaria elimination. This issue of the PATH Malaria Learning Series explores their role in rapidly reducing the malaria parasite burden in targeted populations and explains the differences between various population-wide drug-based strategies. It also takes a close look at the results of PATH-supported research into population-wide drug-based strategies in three malaria-endemic countries in Africa.
