Schematic representation of the two blood-feeding scenarios considered in this study, in which an Anopheles mosquito feeds in an area where cattle are mass-treated with a long-lasting formulation of ivermectin A or B. Pf: Plasmodium falciparum. In gray: the mosquito does not carry Pf. In red: the mosquito carries Pf and eventually becomes infectious. Hatched areas represent for each scenario, the time during which the mosquito should die after its ivermectin blood meal to ensure that the transmission of sporozoites does not occur
