how importated or autochthonous cases are «managed» by health personnel and patients ?
Methodology
To list all human activities in the research zone
To determine the distribution in time and space of these activities
To estimate the number of residents and persons passing through the zone throughout the different months of the year
To collect the discourse of the actors on how they protect themselves against the mosquitoes.
Conclusion : Three questions :
Relationships between human activities and adequate « milieu » for transmission
Populations movements, migrations, and risk of transmission
Declaration and treatment of malaria
