Abstract:

During 2010-2014 a total of 1 779 malaria cases were reported in Henan Province, including 958 indigenous cases, and 821 imported cases, with 12 deaths. No indigenous malaria cases were reported during 2012-2014, but the number of imported cases showed a trend of increase, rising from 106 cases in 2010 to 216 in 2014. Blood examination was conducted in 5 210 428 patients with fever during 2010-2014. A total of 4 829 anophelines were captured, of which 4 741 were Anopheles sinensis and 88 were Anopheles anthropophagus. A total of 28 067 patients were given pre-transmission medications. In addition, 3 112 staff for Plasmodium microscopical examinations and 783 epidemiological researchers received training in the five years. Seventy-two counties（cities, districts） passed the evaluation for malaria elimination. Future work should focus on the enhancement of inspection and management of imported malaria to prevent its further dissemination and to achieve the final goal of malaria elimination in the province.
