^aNyanza Province is no longer an administrative region, but demographic health and surveillance data are still aggregated at this level.

^bBased on most recently available Demographic Health Survey data, therefore years vary.

^cIncidence is per 1000 population. Highly malaria endemic is defined as >1 case per 1000 population.

^dMalaria is endemic to eastern regions of Chittagong Division, but not Matlab.

^eKenyan HIV estimates listed are at the county rather than provincial level.

^fAmong at risk populations.
