Influence of seasonal effects and ITN use prior to pregnancy on parasite burden in primigravidae (PG). (A) First trimester occurring during the wet season and two dose SP-ITPp prescribed in dry season; (B) First trimester in the dry season and two dose SP-ITPp prescribed in wet season; (C) Good ITN adherence prior to and during first trimester in dry season with subsequent two dose SP-ITPp in wet season. The Entomological Inoculation Rate (EIR) is assumed to be approximately 20/month in the wet season and <5/month in the dry season.
