Dynamics of Afebrile Plasmodium falciparum Infections in Mozambican Men

Afebrile Plasmodium falciparum infections detected by rapid diagnostic tests in semi-immune adults fall and stabilize at low density levels during the first 4 days after detection, suggesting a rapid decline of potential transmissibility.
