The geographic spread of mosquito insecticide resistance has unclear evolutionary origins. Schmidt et al. identify partial sweeps at resistance genes on 2 chromosomes from 2 species of mosquitoes, characterizing their global distribution.

The World Can’t Abandon the Fight Against Malaria

After years of progress against malaria in the developing world, cases are surging again. Governments need to redouble efforts to eradicate it for good https://t.co/poTrzwQOHi via @opinion
@lipangalala@Fredros_Inc Another reason why the impact of this manufacturing change was greater in PNG than in 'other countries' is that we don't have pyrethroid resistance. And no other country in the world exclusively used PN2 for >10 years. Most countries received mixes of different products.
The Papua New Guinea Institute of Medical Research (@pngimr) opened a new entomological 🦟 facility: Belna Natnat Haus.
