The World Health Organization (WHO) recently updated its malaria policy guidelines to recommend using long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) treated with a combination of insecticides, which researchers say could be a game-changer in the global fight against the disease if managed effectively.
The WHO now recommends that malaria-endemic regions experiencing pyrethroid resistance switch to the more effective pyrethroid-chlorfenapyr nets.
