Malaria eradication strategies involve a combination of approaches, including:
Vector control: This involves measures such as the use of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) to reduce mosquito populations and prevent bites. Antimalarial drugs: These are used for treatment and prevention, including prophylactic treatments for travelers and mass drug administration (MDA) in high-risk areas. Surveillance and monitoring: Efficient tracking of malaria cases and mosquito populations to identify and respond to outbreaks promptly. Vaccination: The development and deployment of vaccines, such as the RTS,S/AS01 (Mosquirix), which provides partial protection against malaria.
