This intervention consists of full antimalarial treatment courses of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and amodiaquine (SPAQ), administered monthly (28 d...ays) during the high-transmission period (typically the rainy season), generally for up to five months per year. SMC can be deployed relatively easily across a large population and is highly cost-effective at only USD $0.30-0.40/dose,3 making it an important tool for malaria control

Data standards, tools and curricula materials have been developed to support countries to strengthen and monitor national routine surveillance systems and to support use of data for decision-making in all transmission settings. These standards have been d...eveloped into malaria modules in DHIS2 for countries using this platform. These tools comprise:     modules for burden reduction and elimination settings; aggregate module; case-based module and modules for entomological surveillance and vector control interventions

contact avec leur urine, leurs excréments, leur sang, etc. De nombreuses maladies sont transmises par des
vecteurs, notamment le paludisme, la dengue, Zika, le chikungunya, la fièvre jau...ne, la fièvre de Lassa, la fièvre
de la vallée du Rift et la peste. Les vecteurs vivent et se développent parfois sur d’autres animaux hôtes,
appelés des réservoirs, avant d’atteindre les humains. Pour protéger la population des maladies, il est
important de lutter à la fois contre les vecteurs et les réservoirs. Ces deux catégories regroupent des insectes et
animaux tels que les moustiques, les tiques, les rongeurs, les puces, etc.

While this species presents a new challenge for malaria control on the continent, its surveillance and management have been ongoing in Asia for many years. This document aims to summarize key lessons fr...om 3 countries – India, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Sri Lanka – that have been working to control An. stephensi. It is hoped that their experiences and insights will be valuable for countries encountering An. stephensi for the first time.

The main aim of IRS is to kill vectors before they are able to transmit pathogens to humans. When carried out correctly, IRS has his...torically been shown to be a powerful intervention to reduce adult vector density and longevity for mosquitoes, sand flies and triatomine bugs and can reduce the transmission of vector-borne diseases.
