Abstract: Malaria information was collected through online systems in Baoying County from 2005 to 2014 and descriptive analysis was performed on the data. A total of 175 cases of malaria were reported in the years, with no report of death. During 2005-2008, vivax malaria cases constituted 86.4%（19/22） of all cases reported, and all infected locally with diease onset mainly occurred from May to November. During 2009-2014, falciparum malaria cases constituted 82.4%（126/153）, and all imported cases, which showed a trend of increase, from one case in 2007 to 22 in 2009. All the cases reported during 2010-2014 were imported cases. As to malaria control, there was an overall regular treatment rate of 100%, 195 patients had radical cure during the resting stage, and blood test was conducted in 52 827 fevered patients, resulting in a positive rate of 0.3%（149/52 827）. Although no local malaria cases were reported since 2010, the imported malaria is still an important issue.
