Few new insecticides have been produced for control of disease vectors for public health in developing countries over the past three decades, owing to market constraints, and the available insecticides are often poorly deployed. The Innovative Vector Control Consortium will address these market failures by developing a portfolio of chemical and technological tools that will be directly and immediately accessible to populations in the developing world. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has supported this new initiative to enable industry and academia to change the vector control paradigm for malaria and dengue and to ensure that vector control, alongside drugs, case management and vaccines, can be better used to reduce disease.
在过去三十年中，由于市场限制，发展中国家几乎没有生产用于控制公共卫生疾病媒介的新型杀虫剂，而且现有的杀虫剂往往使用不当。创新媒介控制联盟将通过开发一系列化学和技术工具来解决这些市场失灵问题，这些工具将直接且立即供发展中世界的民众使用。比尔及梅琳达·盖茨基金会支持了这一新举措，以使工业界和学术界能够改变疟疾和登革热的媒介控制模式，并确保媒介控制与药物、病例管理和疫苗一起，能够更好地用于减少疾病。
