Figure 9. Median (solid lines) and 95^th percentile range (shaded areas) of 500 simulations of the effect of vector control interventions (long-lasting insecticidal nets, or LLINs & larval control) on the prevalence of patent infection of malaria (left) and lymphatic filariasis (right) over time, assuming the intervention starts at day 1000 at a level of coverage, φ, of 80%.

Simulations reflect the impact of uncertainty in model parameter values, and seasonal variation in density-dependent immature mosquito mortality. Patent prevalence is defined as the proportion of infectious humans.
