Au Sénégal, la LAV repose principalement sur deux interventions majeures: la promotion de l’utilisation des Moustiquaires Imprégnées d’Insecticide à longue durée d’Action (MILDA) et l’Aspersion Intra Domiciliaire d’insecticide à effet rémanent (AID). Même si ces deux interventions... restent efficaces dans la plupart des zones, la résistance croissante des vecteurs aux insecticides appelle d’urgence à une action coordonnée. Dès lors, la gestion de la résistance devient un impératif pour maintenir l’efficacité des stratégies de LAV. C’est dans ce cadre que le PNLP a élaboré ce présent Plan National de Gestion de la Résistance des Vecteurs aux Insecticides (PNGRVI) pour la période 2017-2020.
