Godfrey M Mubyazi, Paul Bloch, Pascal Magnussen, Øystein E Olsen, Jens Byskov, Kristian S Hansen, Ib C Bygbjerg Malaria Journal 2010, 9:54 (17 February 2010) Qualitative data collected in the Mufindi and Mkuranga districts of Coast Region using focus group discussions and exit-interviews with pregnant women identified at ANC clinics. The authors feel that although the Tanzanian government recommends that women who attend antenatal care clinics also receive intermittent preventive treatment against malaria and vouchers for insecticide-treated nets at subsidized prices, the effectiveness of this policy has never been tested in the field.
