Geostatistical analysis of Malawi’s changing malaria transmission from 2010 to 2017.

The prevalence of malaria infection in time and space provides important information on the likely sub-national epidemiology of malaria burdens and how this changes following intervention. To present empirical evidence on malaria transmission changes in Malawi, we used data from Plasmodium falciparum parasite prevalence (PfPR) surveys undertaken in Malawi between 2000 and 2017. These data were assembled as part of intensive search lasting over 21 years.
