The temporal dynamics and infectiousness of subpatent Plasmodium falciparum infections in relation to parasite density

The temporal dynamics and infectiousness of subpatent Plasmodium falciparum infections in relation to parasite density

The role of subpatent infections for malaria transmission and elimination is unclear. Here, Slater et al. analyse several malaria datasets to quantify the density, detectability, course of infection and infectiousness of subpatent infections.
