Controlling Malaria Using Livestock-Based Interventions: A One Health Approach
Figure 5
Predicted impact of Insecticide Treatment of Livestock on malaria prevalence – with repellency () or attractancy (
) for k = 0.1.
This figure shows how the diversionary properties of the insecticide affect the coverage required to achieve a given prevalence ratio (PR: prevalence with ITL / baseline prevalence). Blue line: PR = 0.46 (like the observed in the Pakistan trial); White line: PR = 0; Red line: PR = 1 (above which treating livestock increases malaria prevalence). Along the y axis, is varying from no diversion (
) to maximum repellency (
) or maximum attractancy (
). The colour bar shows the scale of PR values, from 0 to ≈11 in Pakistan and up to ≈5 in Ethiopia. Other parameters are as in Table 2.
