A spatial agent-based model of Anopheles vagus for malaria epidemiology: examining the impact of vector control interventions

Abstract

Output of ABM[Formula: see text] showed high sensitivity to real-life field data of the environmental factors and the landscape of a particular area. Hence, it is recommended to use the model for a given area in connection to its local field data. For applying combined interventions, three interventions altogether are highly recommended whenever possible. It is also suggested that ITNs/LLINs with IRS can be applied when three interventions are not available.
