Malaria epidemiology in displaced Karen ethnic children along the Thai-Burmese (Myanmar) border was observed for 3 years. An active screening process in connection with malaria chemoprophylaxis trials showed a decrease in malaria prevalence over time in children not receiving chemoprophylaxis. The number of malaria cases detected at a primary health care clinic in the same area remained stable.
