What does WHO recommend to tackle artemisinin resistance?

As far as I know as at March 2017 there was no resistance to artemisinin in Papua New Guinea.  This may change but the information on the WHO website only mention artemisinin resistance in 5 countries of the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS): Cambodia, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Myanmar, Thailand and Viet Nam.

As with all medical treatment please consult a medical person with relevant experience and training not the Internet.
