This report describes the measures being applied to control malaria in China and outlines the present situation in the country. In the 1940s, it was estimated that approximately 350 million people were at risk of infection and that about 30 million cases of malaria occurred annually. In the last 30 years, large-scale antimalaria campaigns have been established and have achieved much success. In 1979, there were just over 2 million reported cases of malaria and approximately 64% of the population now live in areas where the incidence is below 5 per 10 000. However, there are still several major difficulties to be overcome, and much work is needed before the ultimate goal of complete eradication of malaria in China can be achieved.
本报告介绍了中国为控制疟疾所采取的措施，并概述了该国的现状。20世纪40年代，据估计约有3.5亿人面临感染风险，每年约有3000万疟疾病例。在过去30年里，开展了大规模的抗疟运动并取得了很大成功。1979年，报告的疟疾病例刚刚超过200万，现在约64%的人口生活在发病率低于万分之五的地区。然而，仍有几个主要困难需要克服，在中国实现彻底根除疟疾的最终目标之前，还需要做大量工作。
