Access and usage of malaria control measures by women of reproductive age in Mopeia Mozambique
This study found that women of reproductive age in the highly-endemic Mopeia district have good access to malaria vector control tools. However, intermittent preventive treatment coverage remains below World Health Organization-recommended levels. Focused efforts are needed to improve this coverage, and continuous monitoring along with tailored interventions are essential for achieving optimal prevention outcomes among vulnerable populations.
