“…The study was carried out in Ndiop, a Senegalese village with seasonal transmission where a long-term longitudinal survey designed to study acquisition and maintenance of natural immunity has been carried out over more than 20 years [1922]. The project protocol and objectives were carefully explained to the assembled villagers, and informed consent was obtained from all participants or their parents or guardians on a voluntary consent form written in both French and in Wolof, the local language.…”

“…All other procedures were as described [24, 25]. Each plate included two positive controls: a pool of human Immune IgG (kind gift from Prof M Hommel) and a pool of 30 sera collected in 2000–2 from immune adults from Dielmo, a holoendemic village located 5 km apart from Ndiop [21, 22]. The negative naïve control was a pool of non-immune sera from blood donors living in France.…”

“…Scaled-up standard containment activities have helped to control malaria in a range of regions and may have contributed to the global decline of malaria prevalence over the last 10 years [130][131][132][133]. This slow strangulation of parasite populations results in the selection of the most resistant parasite strains, which manage to survive despite control efforts [134].…”

“…Malaria control programs in Dielmo have not only led to a drastic reduction of disease prevalence [22] but also to the uncovering of other causes of fever presumably believed as malaria. These febrile episodes may be caused by other infectious pathogens including bacteria, parasites or viruses [23,24].…”
