Patterns of mixed Plasmodium species infections among children six years and under in selected malaria hyper-endemic communities of Zambia: population-based survey observations

BACKGROUND: Although malaria is preventable and treatable, it still claims 660,000 lives every year globally with children under five years of age having the highest burden.
