Facilitators, barriers and acceptability of malaria reactive surveillance and response strategies in Vietnam: a mixed-methods study
Overall health system support and policy commitment are key to successful implementation of RASR strategies and therefore for achieving malaria elimination. Despite high-performance and well-accepted RASR strategies, more financial and human resource investments are warranted to investigate and respond to all malaria foci in time. Village health workers could be used effectively to engage community members and mobile migrant populations in RASR activities.
