Estimating the size of populations at risk for malaria: a case study in cattle herders and agricultural workers in Northern Namibia
Abstract Cattle herders and agricultural workers have been identified has key high-risk populations for malaria in northern Namibia. Population size estimates for these groups are lacking but are important for planning, monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of targeted strategies towards malar...
