I should note that the 2005 census is outdated, especially for some of the smaller villages here. We are looking for more recent numbers for these. Some villages were not included on the census we found, so we are looking for numbers for these too. Villages like Dapata Pass had no nets to begin with, had a population of workers who had branched off from another village to farm more distant fields (and did not have many children yet), and had more people than the 2005 census. Other villages like Boundicoundi have relatively more money and had more mosquito nets to begin with. There are variations in each village that changed the ratio of nets per person in each village. In a general way, I'd say we were liberal with nets in the villages. If somebody made a claim that they should have one, we'd listen why and usually give them one. We wanted to cover the entire population, because in general "herd coverage", as they call it, is the best way to statistically decrease the incidence of a population. If a young guy had three wives, we started by giving all his wives nets. If he made the case that he had his own hut and didn't spend the night with any of his wives that often, we gave him a net. Our main reason: If the guy is a jerk, he'd steal a net from one of his wives and leave her without protection. Most of these men, were definately not jerks, but its hard to tell. Jerks are out there, and we take the safe, liberal side of things and give them nets to protect the women.

Totals: 17 villages with complete coverage
1100 nets distributed
2600 people protected (rough estimate)
