Abstract

Each year, approximately 1000 cases of malaria are reported in the United States, nearly all among persons with histories of antecedent international travel. Failure to use appropriate measures to prevent infection when traveling in areas with endemic disease and delays in diagnosis and treatment can result in severe complications and death. This report presents three recent cases of malaria that illustrate the importance of following the fundamental measures for preventing malaria.
