Tanzanian Highlands Vector-Borne Diseases Epidemiology and Control Strategies Over Time

Vector-borne diseases in the Tanzanian Highlands have been a significant health concern for decades. A longitudinal study employing spatial-temporal analysis to track disease incidence and implement appropriate interventions. An increasing trend in the prevalence of malaria was observed from to , with a proportion of 35% in the most affected areas. The study underscores the critical need for continuous surveillance and targeted intervention strategies tailored to local conditions. Implementing community-based prevention programmes alongside government-led initiatives is recommended to mitigate vector-borne disease burdens. Treatment effect was estimated with logit(pᵢ)=β₀+β^ Xᵢ, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
