Malaria
Beijing CDC previously issued a reminder that when traveling abroad during the holidays, you need to beware of malaria. Malaria is an acute febrile disease transmitted by the Plasmodium parasite in the human body through the bite of the female Anopheles mosquito.
There are four main types of malaria parasites that infect humans: vivax malaria, falciparum malaria, malaria ovale and malaria malaria, in addition, Plasmodium knowlesi can also infect humans. China has been certified as a malaria-free country by the World Health Organization in 2021. Due to the cross-border movement of people, there are still a certain number of imported cases of malaria every year, and severe cases and deaths occur from time to time.
An acute severe malaria attack can cause coma, impaired consciousness, and multisystem failure leading to death.
Symptoms of malaria are chills and fever

Important Reminder
If you have chills, fever and symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, you should see a doctor in time for antigen or nucleic acid testing, and targeted treatment can be given after a clear diagnosis.
For influenza, anti-influenza drugs such as oseltamivir or mabaloxavir can be used, and if the new coronavirus is infected, anti-COVID drugs can be used early.
If you've been to Africa, Southeast Asia, etc., you'll be tested for malaria parasites and blood tests. If the test result is positive, you will be given artemisinin-based drugs for treatment.
If you have recently returned from malaria-endemic areas such as Africa and Southeast Asia
If you have fever and other symptoms, you must seek medical attention as soon as possible, and take the initiative to inform the overseas travel and residence history for early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment, and early recovery!
