Bed Nets, Insecticides, and Antimalarials: Where to Next?

Bed Nets, Insecticides, and Antimalarials: Where to Next? Trends Parasitol. 2019 Jul 11;: Authors: Buchanan HD, McFadden GI, Goodman CD Abstract Insecticide-impregnated bed nets have saved millions from fatal malaria, but their effectiveness is waning due to mosquito insecticide resistance. A new strategy (Paton et al., Nature, 2019) to deliver parasiticidal compounds into mosquitoes to kill transmission-stage parasites could enhance the effectiveness of bed nets and get around the perennial problems of resistance.
