          Malaria eradication requires a 100% mind-set of success. There are no 70% or 80% or 90% efforts that pass in malaria control and eradication.

          I just wanna advice about the major draw back in using HRP2 kits as the enzyme still remain coated in the blood cells even two weeks after loss of symptoms leading to false + results.
