Characterizing the path to elimination. a The proportion of notified malaria cases in males increases in lower transmission settings. b The proportion of notified malaria cases in adults (> 16 years) increases in lower transmission settings. c The proportion of notified malaria cases due to importation increases in lower transmission settings. d Across the Amazon Basin, the majority of notified malaria cases are due to P. vivax. e When analysed on the state level, an increasing proportion of P. vivax cases is seen in lower malaria transmission settings. Each point represents one observation per state from 2004 to 2018. The loess curve is estimated using data from 2006 onwards and observations with at least 20 annual cases reported (a–d: for all points; e: by state)
