Selection of Plasmodium falciparum kelch13 mutations in Uganda in comparison with southeast Asia: a modelling study
k13 mutation selection in Uganda was similar to that observed in southeast Asia, suggesting that frequencies of k13 mutations will continue to increase quickly in Uganda. These commensurate levels of selection indicate a high potential for rapid transmission across other parts of Africa, underscoring the urgent need for treatments and policies to mitigate the spread and impact of k13 mutations.
