Severe malarial anaemia in childhood is associated with decreased long-term household wealth
Our findings indicate that severe malarial anaemia in childhood, but not other forms of severe malaria, may be associated with decreased household wealth 4 to 20 years later. Controlling malaria in low-resource settings could protect poor households from worse socioeconomic index over time
Does Free Public Health Care Increase Utilization and Reduce Spending? Heterogeneity and Long-Term Effects
Zambia removed user fees in publicly supported-government and faith based- health facilities in 54 out of 72 districts in 2006.
