Communicable Disease Control Program
We monitor communicable diseases, investigate outbreaks, and distribute vaccines across the region.
Malaria is a vector-borne disease spread by the Anopheles species of mosquito. Collect detailed travel history from the case to determine if infection is travel-acquired. If there is no travel history, assess for risk of transfusion transmissible infection (TTI). Every case of malaria requires MHO notification.
