Costs and cost-effectiveness of vector control in Eritrea using insecticide-treated bed nets (Publications)
BACKGROUND: While insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are a recognized effective method for preventing malaria, there has been an extensive debate in recent years about the best large-scale implementation strategy
