| dc.description.abstract | The term Information Communication Technology (ICT) includes any communication device or application. In malaria control, ICTs can ease communication, improve doctors’ training, and increase access
to information by individuals and groups that are historically unaware of malaria. Successful malaria
vector control depends on understanding causes, prevention, and treatment. This paper examines the
possibilities of using ICTs to eradicate malaria in Tanzania. It also explores the coverage of the malaria
subject related to Tanzania on various electronic databases and e-journals. This paper concludes that
Tanzania’s Ministry of Health must put forth more effort on ICT management and be more active in their
approach of disseminating malaria information. | en_US |
