Status of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors in Kwale County, Coastal Kenya
Abstract Background The strategy for malaria vector control in the context of reducing malaria morbidity and mortality has been the scale-up of long-lasting insecticidal nets to universal coverage and indoor residual spraying. This has led to significant decline in malaria transmission. However, the...
