Fit and comparison of individual-based model to Malindi, Kenya dataset. The model was fitted using maximum likelihood to the baseline data in 2002. The MDA programme was modelled for the subsequent years and compared to the outcome from the data. a Baseline age prevalence data used in model fitting given as point estimates with standard errors. Example age prevalence curves from simulations shown in grey. b The range of prevalence from simulations are given as box-plots with the prevalence from the data given as a single point. c Comparison between model predicted mf-intensity distribution and mf-intensity distribution derived from data. Data colour is semi-transparent to show model distribution behind. d The range of prevalence from simulations are given as box-plots with the ICT prevalence from the data given as a single point
