A Phase I safety and immunogenicity study with a three-component blood- stage malaria vaccine was conducted in adult male subjects living in an endemic area of Papua New Guinea. The preparations were
Habitat-based larval interventions: a new perspective for malaria control (Publications)
environmental management of mosquito larval habitats has been rekindled due to deterioration of malaria in tropical Africa. Environmental management programs were typically implemented as "all-out" campaigns [...] tiveness, and sustainability of such approaches, particularly when implemented along with other malaria control measures
