*Malaria includes one episode (female,<5 years old), due to non-falciparum species (P. malariae).

**per person-year.

***Parasitemia by light microscopy includes one episode (female, 5–15 years old) due to non-falciparum species (P. ovale).

****Geometric mean parasite density in parasites/µL of all qPCR-positive routine visits.
