简介
Background
Primarily, infection with a malaria parasite occurs through the bite of an infective mosquito; thus, an unavoidable relationship between the rate of infectious bites, directly measured as the entomological inoculation rate (EIR), and malaria prevalence (PR). This relationship can highlight key features of the malaria epidemiology to inform the effective planning of control strategies; however, it has been scarcely studied, limiting insightful discussions on its nature and implications. We study the Plasmodium falciparum EIR–PR relationship and present insights into its possible implications for malaria control.
