Progress towards target in Burkina Faso as of 2012 [29]

2014 Malaria Indicator Survey Results [16]

1

100 % of the population sleeping under long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs)

Approximately 50 % of total population at risk

Achieve and maintain 100 % coverage

71 % of the households have access to at least one LLIN

In households with at least one LLIN, 74 % of the population of these

Households slept under mosquito nets at night

100 % of the populations of the four health regions targeted (South-West, Cascades, Hauts-basins and Mouhoun) benefit from indoor residual spraying (IRS)

Approximately 1 % of population covered

Suspension of IRS

 

3

100 % of the targeted breeding sites in the Central and Hauts-Bassins regions are covered by larviciding
