Mobile Health Clinics' Outreach Programmes in Malaria Prevention: An Intervention Study in Côte d'Ivoire Villages

Malaria remains a significant public health concern in Côte d'Ivoire, with many villages lacking access to reliable healthcare services. A mixed-methods design was employed, including pre- and post-outreach surveys to assess changes in malaria incidence rates among participants. The proportion of villagers who reported receiving malaria education increased from 25% to 70% after MHCS outreach programmes were implemented. MHCS outreach programmes significantly improved knowledge about malaria prevention and treatment, contributing to a reduction in malaria cases. Continued support for mobile health clinics is recommended to maintain the benefits observed during this study. Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
