Project’s Enumerated Costs:

(I couldn't figure out how to shorten my section, enumerated costs I thought needed to identify what each project spent money on. If this is covered sufficently in another section I must have misunderstood and go ahead and remove unessesary information.

Note: The Table on Pg 104 is a good summary of costs / benefits for all three projects)

Costs based on macroeconomic models were $18 per capita with a total annualized cost of $10.177 million. A package of Malaria interventions did not have a per capita cost however total annualized costs were $2,942 million. Costs in HIV/AIDS control include prevention programs and healthcare services.
