Malaria hotspots and risk factors among children under-five years of age across eight West African countries: A geospatial analysis of DHS data
This study highlights the importance of geospatial approaches for understanding malaria transmission dynamics in order to tailor malaria control measures to local context. The findings underscore the need to strengthen the effective use of insecticide-treated nets and community-level vector control, while improving spatial surveillance and data integration to support context-specific malaria interventions.
