Malaria should be considered in a patient with unexplained fever and a history of travel to an endemic area. Aggressive therapy must be started if Plasmodium falciparum infection is a possibility. Travelers must be educated about mosquito bite protection and appropriate chemoprophylaxis. Travelers can, however, acquire malaria despite chemoprophylaxis, and symptoms may appear up to one year after the trip.
对于有不明原因发热且有疫区旅行史的患者，应考虑疟疾。如果有可能感染恶性疟原虫，必须开始积极治疗。必须对旅行者进行防蚊叮咬和适当化学预防方面的教育。然而，旅行者即使进行了化学预防仍可能感染疟疾，症状可能在旅行后长达一年才出现。
