Discussion
Which of the following is/are NOT a part of integrated vector management for the malaria elimination framework?
1. Indoor residual spray
2. Case based surveillance and rapid response
3. Long lasting insecticidal nets
4. Larval source management
Choose the most appropriate answer from the option given below:
Answer: B
The one that is not part of integrated vector management is 2 only: case based surveillance and rapid response.
Integrated vector management controls mosquitoes using several methods together: indoor residual spraying, long-lasting insecticidal nets, larval source management (removing breeding sites, larvicides and biological control) and community participation.
Case-based surveillance and rapid response is a key part of the malaria elimination framework, but it deals with detecting and responding to human cases, not with controlling the vector. So it is the one item that does not belong.
