Setting | Infection | n | Duffy negative | Duffy positive | Ratio of mixed species infection to P. vivax only infections | Fisher’s exact test | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Â | Â | Â | Â | Â | Duffy negative | Duffy positive | Â |
Community | Pv | 125 | 4 | 121 | 0.5 | 0.05 | P < 0.05 |
|  | Pv + Pf | 8 | 2 | 6 | |||
Health Center | Pv | 186 | 2 | 184 | 3.5 | 0.10 | P < 0.001 |
|  | Pv + Pf | 26 | 7 | 19 | |||
