The epidemiology of Plasmodium vivax among adults in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

The epidemiology of Plasmodium vivax among adults in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

Plasmodium vivax generally accounts for a low proportion of malaria cases in Africa, but population-level data on the distribution of infections is limited. Here, the authors use data from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and show that the prevalence is low (~3%) and diffusely spread.
