Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about how snakebite risk varies in different environments in Kenya and understand how this information can be used to support decision makers.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. To what extent can information on snakebite cases and data on geographic, climatic and sociodemographic factors be used to predict geographical variation in snakebite risk in Kenya and Eswatini?
2. What is the most effective means of presenting outputs from spatial analysis of snakebite risk to ensure its effective use in research and healthcare decision making?

Participants in the community survey will be asked survey questions about the history of snakebite in their household. Participants in the key informant interviews will be interviewed to understand how data on snakebite risk can be best presented to support their work.
