Malaria is one of the most common diseases imported to the Czech Republic with an upward trend in incidence. Travelers are leaving for abroad without antimalarial prophylaxis or refuse preventive antimalarial drugs. Failure to comply with antimalarial prophylaxis in high-risk areas can lead to malaria infection which may manifest itself even after returning home. As the disease is often mistaken for influenza, any traveler to malaria risk areas who presents with fever needs to be tested for malaria. Individual preventive measures consist in the correct use of repellents, insecticides, and bed nets LLITNs, wearing light colored clothing, and regular use of antimalarial prophylaxis.
疟疾是输入到捷克共和国的最常见疾病之一，发病率呈上升趋势。旅行者出国时未采取抗疟预防措施或拒绝服用预防性抗疟药物。在高风险地区不遵守抗疟预防措施可能导致疟疾感染，甚至在回国后也可能出现症状。由于这种疾病常被误诊为流感，任何前往疟疾风险地区且出现发热症状的旅行者都需要进行疟疾检测。个人预防措施包括正确使用驱虫剂、杀虫剂和长效驱虫蚊帐（LLITNs），穿着浅色衣物，以及定期服用抗疟预防药物。
