Abstract
Malaria continues to be an increasing health concern in many endemic areas where it remains a major contributor to childhood morbidity and mortality. Chemoprophylaxis and treatment are increasingly compromised by drug resistance. Vaccination for malaria is not yet available outside clinical trials. In clinical trials bed nets have been shown to be effective in reducing malarial morbidity and mortality. Their efficacy outside of the clinical trial setting has been less well documented. We describe our experience with the introduction of bed nets in a remote rural Zambian village and document the effect on malarial parasitaemia, spleen rates and haemoglobin. Children were evaluated at the end of the rainy seasons in April 1998 and April 1999. Insecticide impregnated nets were made available for purchase to the village in July 1998. Rates of parasitaemia and anaemia were significantly reduced.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
