Epidemiology and Control of Plasmodium vivax in Afghanistan.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene - 28 Dec 2016

Leslie Toby, Nahzat Sami, Sediqi Walid

Abstract excerpt

Around half of the population of Afghanistan resides in areas at risk of malaria transmission. Two species of malaria (Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum) account for a high burden of disease-in 2011, there were more than 300,000 confirmed cases. Around 80-95% of malaria is P. vivax Transmission is seasonal and focal, below 2,000 m in altitude, and in irrigated areas which allow breeding of anopheline...
