Prioritizing the scale-up of interventions for malaria control and elimination.

In a programme that is budget restricted, it is essential that investment in available tools be effectively prioritized to maximize impact for a given investment.

This quantitative analysis considers the scale-up or core interventions to inform decision making in this area.
