Is Housing Quality Associated with Malaria Incidence among Young Children and Mosquito Vector Numbers? Evidence from Korogwe, Tanzania (original) (raw)
Figure 3
Slide positivity rate by housing index quintile.
The incidence of malaria decreases as the housing quality index increases (Figure 3). In particular, incidence among children residing in the lowest three quintiles was over two to three times higher than among those residing in the highest quality quintile, and this was consistent across rural and urban areas.
