The World Health Organization released the World Malaria Report 2014 on December 9, saying that since 2000, the number of malaria cases worldwide has steadily decreased, and the number of malaria deaths has fallen sharply.

The report estimates that there were approximately 198 million malaria patients worldwide and a death rate of 584,000 in 2013. Azerbaijan and Sri Lanka reported zero cases of malaria for the first time, and 11 countries including Argentina, Egypt and Iraq continued to maintain zero infection cases, and the country is moving towards malaria eradication goals. Is increasing.

According to the report, between 2000 and 2013, the number of people who received rapid detection of malaria, effective treatment, and the use of insecticide-treated nets to prevent malaria increased significantly. Among them, half of the people at risk of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa in 2013 have used insecticide-treated nets.

Data show that global malaria mortality fell by 47% between 2000 and 2013, with malaria deaths accounting for 54% of the global death toll from malaria in the world.

However, the report also said that there are still millions of people around the world who lack malaria detection and treatment measures, and the progress in prevention and treatment of pregnant women, infants under 5 years old and children is slow. In addition, malaria-resistant malaria has been reported in some countries in South-East Asia and the lack of data on malaria transmission has hampered global efforts to reduce the burden of malaria.

Malaria is an acute infectious disease caused by malaria parasites, which is mostly transmitted by mosquito bites. Its unique symptoms are intermittent chills and fever. If left untreated, malaria can cause death by destroying blood supply to vital organs.
