Legend: IRS = Indoor residual spraying.
In the first definition of behavior, passive behavior includes all measures that are donated by the government (IRS, fogging and bed nets). In the second definition of behavior, passive behavior only includes IRS and fogging but not bed nets since it can be seen as requiring an ‘active’ usage.
