Plasmodium vivax prevalence map illustrating study site locations. This map was generated by the Malaria Atlas Project, University of Oxford. The colour scales reflect the model-based geostatistical point estimates of the annual mean P. vivax parasite rate in the 1–99 year age range (PvPR1–99) [54] within the stable spatial limits of transmission in 2010. The approximate locations of the study sites described here are indicated with numbers as follows; 1 Insein, Yangon Region; 2 Shwegyin, Bago East Region; 3 Hpa-An, Kayin State; 4 Myawaddy, Kayin State; 5 Kawthoung, Tanintharyi Region
