Experimental design for SIV and blood-stage Plasmodium cynomolgi (Pc) malaria coinfection in Chinese rhesus monkeys. At week − 8, five monkeys were infected with SIVmac251. At week 0, the SIV-infected monkeys and a group of naïve monkeys (n = 5) were inoculated with blood-stage Pc parasites. Primary malaria infection was terminated by a three-day chloroquine phosphate treatment (Chl) at week 26. Four weeks later, all animals were reinoculated with Pc. All monkeys were treated with chloroquine phosphate for 3 days at week 34
