This poster was presented at the American Society of Tropical Medicine & Hygiene Conference 2017. It discusses the results of a study on the level of personal protection provided by insecticide treated nets in the presence of pyrethroid resistance, which was detected in Anopheles gambiae s.s. in a carbamate-sprayed site and an unsprayed site in Uganda, by using data from repeated household surveys.
