IntroductionReactive case detection (RACD), or testing and treatment of close contacts of recent malaria cases, is widely used in settings nearing malaria elimination, but often results in very low yield and uncertain impact. In areas where the primary vector exposure occurs outside the home, adapting RACD to target high-risk populations with specific exposure profiles may increase yield, surveillance value, and impact on treatment rates and transmission. MethodsWe evaluated the feasibility and...
