Chemoprophylaxis compliance in a French battalion after returning from malaria-endemic area
Abstract
Incidence of malaria is increasing in travelers and soldiers. In 2006, a survey was performed in a French battalion returning from a malaria-endemic area. According to the chemoprophylaxis plasma concentration and the individuals' reports, the noncompliance rates were high, respectively, 63.4 and 54.7%.
