Discussion about WHOPES and Long-lasting Insecticidal Nets to control malaria (4)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hullo friends,

I think it is not fair to conclude that people in Africa do not use Mosquito Nets! I would feel comfortable if someone said, 'people I visited in Africa did not use nets at the time I was there'. It is better to have a good representative sample to conclude that people in Africa do not use mosquito nets. The fact is some people do not use them due to many reasons like cost, accommodation, attitude, to mention but a few.

But thanks for a good discussion about Nets. I also support use of DDT because malaria is killing many people and as you well know, mosquitoes bite you before you go to bed, in other words, by the time you enter the Mnet to sleep, you already have a mosquito bite from outside the house! We need spraying.

Regards,
