In the fifth paragraph of the results section the last two sentences contain incorrect data. The correct text should read: In addition, 302 children were selected from one school in Mwea division. After getting consent from their guardians and parents, only 285 pupils from the school were asked to donate a finger prick blood sample for malaria parasite examination. The median age was 7.0 years old (Range: 4½ – 10 years). There were more boys (53%) than girls (47%) examined in the survey. No malaria parasites were found.
