The relative impact of interventions on sympatric Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum malaria: A systematic review.
Background In areas with both Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum malaria, interventions can reduce the burden of both species but the impact may vary due to their different biology. Knowing the expected relative impact on the two species over time for vector- and drug-based interventions, an...
