Example longitudinal data in a subset of individuals who experienced submicroscopic parasitaemia. The data include information by microscopy (slide-positive) and PCR in (a) all-age individuals in Senegal in 200562 and (b) a birth cohort in Ghana64. Each row represents a single individual, with time on the x-axis (time = age in the Ghana cohort). Individuals were sampled weekly in Senegal and every 2–4 weeks in Ghana, and the colours indicate their infection status at each sampling time. Blank space indicates missing data. Source data are provided as a Source Data file
