Editor’s summary
This paper looks at small scale variation in malaria prevalence among children below 15 years of age in Angola using cross-sectional survey data. The authors show a number of predictors of prevalence that are statistically significant. The authors suggest the presence of clusters of high prevalence and recommend the targeting of these clusters for malaria control to quickly reduce the burden of disease.
