Abstract:

Malaria is an old mosquito-borne parasitic disease, imposing great threat to human health, impacting social stability and economic development, and placing heavy burden to the global medical and health resources. In this paper, we systematically review the economic burden caused through malaria by searching literature from China and other countries, with the aim to provide reference for credible estimation of disease burden for effective allocation of health resources on nationwide and local base, and for appropriate management of the challenges of disease burden.

Key words: Malaria, Economic burden, Disease burden
