  1. ITN results are from country reports to Global Fund secretariat. Table excludes multi-country grants in the Western Pacific and Andean Americas. Country groupings, including certain regions, are as per the Global Fund regional categorizations http://www.theglobalfund.org. PNG = Papua New Guinea.
  2. $$In the North Africa & Middle East region, Yemen was included in the regional totals for ITN numbers and for population at risk, but not in the estimation of Lives saved. Yemen was not included in the total for 'sub-Saharan Africa + PNG'.
  3. # All 9 East Asia countries were included in ITN numbers, but only Papua New Guinea was included in the estimation of Lives saved.
  4. * Weighted by country population size.
  5. Example calculations of child-years of protection achieved and lives saved by country-reported ITN distributions are given in Additional file 1.
