Department of Immunology and Infection, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, London, United Kingdom
PLoS ONE 6:e25137. 2011..Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea, has been subject to comprehensive malaria control interventions since 2004. This has resulted in substantial reductions in the parasite burden, although this drop has not been uniform across the island...
