Net age, but not integrity, may be associated with decreased protection against Plasmodium falciparum infection in southern Malawi
BACKGROUND: Distribution campaigns for insecticide-treated nets (ITN) have increased the use of ITNs in Malawi, but malaria prevalence remains high even among those using the nets. Previous studies have addressed ITN ownership, insecticide resistance, and frequency of ITN use as possible contributin...
