Estimated multiplicity of infection by age group. Estimated multiplicity of infection (i.e. the mean number of Pfmsp1 block 2-alleles detected per sample) was calculated from PCR fragments generated in the nested PCR reaction. There were 51, 83, 61, 60 and 51 samples in the 0-1 y, 2-5 y, 6-9 y, 10-19 y and ≥20 y age groups, respectively. The figures shown are the mean and SD.
