Case report: Diagnostic challenges in the detection of a mixed <em>Plasmodium vivax/ovale</em> infection in a non-endemic setting (Publications)
infections are often not detected by light microscopy (LM) or rapid diagnostic test, as a low number of parasites of one species may occur. Here, we report the case of an 8-year-old girl migrating with her family
