We report two the cases of patients with imported Plasmodium falciparum malaria during the COVID-19 pandemic. One was coinfected with COVID-19 and the other was misdiagnosed with COVID-19; either way, the diagnosis of malaria was delayed. These cases suggest that physicians should beware of cognitive biases during pandemics and carefully evaluate febrile patients. Malaria should be considered in any febrile patient returning from a malaria-endemic area.
我们报告了两例 COVID-19 大流行期间输入性恶性疟原虫疟疾患者。一例合并感染 COVID-19，另一例误诊为 COVID-19；无论哪种情况，疟疾的诊断都被延误了。这些病例表明，在大流行期间，医生应该警惕认知偏差，并仔细评估发热患者。对于从疟疾流行地区返回的任何发热患者，都应考虑疟疾。
