Investigating the relationship between malaria incidence and public health infrastructure in sub-Saharan Africa
Access to clean water and adequate sanitation are strongly associated with lower malaria incidence, underscoring their importance in malaria control efforts. While vitamin A supplementation shows weaker associations, it may still interact with broader health conditions. These findings highlight the essential role of basic infrastructure in reducing malaria burden and demonstrate the potential of predictive modeling to support future global health research.
