Neglect of Plasmodium vivax malaria
Trends in Parasitology, 2007 Plasmodium vivax infects 130-435 million of the 2.6 billion people living at risk of infection. Recent studies suggest that vivax malaria can become lethal in a similar way to severe falciparum malaria. First-line therapies remain unchanged after 50 years.

Development of vaccines for Plasmodium vivax malaria
Vaccine, 2015 Plasmodium vivax continues to cause significant morbidity outside Africa with more than 50% of malaria cases in many parts of South and South-east Asia, Pacific islands, Central and South America being attributed to P. vivax infections. The unique biology of P. vivax, including its ability to form latent hypnozoites that emerge months to years later to
