WHO recommends new malaria nets based on research by LSHTM and partners

The World Health Organization (WHO) has updated its policy regarding the type of insecticide used on bed nets to prevent malaria. Against the backdrop of growing resistance of disease-carrying Anopheles mosquitoes to pyrethroid, the insecticide currently used in insecticide-treated nets (ITNs), the WHO now recommends that areas with pyrethroid-resistance should instead use pyrethroid-chlorfenapyr ITNs. ....

Getting ahead of insecticide-resistant malaria vector mosquitoes

In The Lancet, Manfred Accrombessi and colleagues1 report the results of a rigorous
cluster-randomised, controlled, superiority trial in Benin, encompassing 54 030 households
and 216 289 people, which confirms that the addition of the pyrrole insecticide chlorfenapyr
to long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs), as a second active ingredient to back up
the pyrethroids we have relied upon so heavily for so long, can have invaluable effects
on malaria transmission and disease burden. A total of 115 323 LLINs were distributed
to 54 030 households and the primary outcome of mean malaria case incidence 24 months
after LLIN distribution in a cohort of children aged 6 months to 10 years showed 1·03
cases per child-year (95% CI 0·96–1·09) in the pyrethroid-only LLIN reference group,
0·56 cases per child-year (0·51–0·61) in the chlorfenapyr-pyrethroid LLIN group (hazard
ratio [HR] 0·54, 95% CI 0·42–0·70; p<0·0001), and 0·84 cases per child- ....
