Excerpt

Malaria disease shifts to older ages when interventions are applied only to the youngest children, and incidence will resurge in endemic settings when intervention coverage decreases. This has consequences for the deployment of long-lasting insecticide treated nets or infection blocking vaccines (e.g. pre-erythrocytic vaccines). These delay acquisition of immunity, with the result that previously protected individuals may experience pathology later in life due to undeveloped or waning immunity. …

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
