Individual-level interventions determine what will be distributed to individuals to reduce the spread of a disease. For example, distributing vaccines or drugs are individual-level interventions. Sometimes this can be an intermediate intervention that schedules another intervention.

The following individual-level interventions are available for use with the malaria simulation type.
