Malaria cases in the US: Florida and Texas report outbreaks after two decades

Malaria has reappeared in the United States, specifically in Florida and Texas, after a gap of two decades.

Malaria has reappeared in the United States, specifically in Florida and Texas, after a gap of two decades.

In a surprising turn of events, malaria cases have emerged in the United States after a hiatus of two decades. The states of Florida and Texas have recently reported cases of this mosquito-borne disease, raising concerns among health authorities.
Malaria, a disease commonly associated with tropical regions, has managed to find its way back to American soil, underscoring the need for vigilance and preventive measures.
Florida and Texas, known for their warm and humid climates, have become the unfortunate epicentres of this resurgence. The reported cases have caught many by surprise, as malaria was considered almost eradicated in the United States.
The last locally transmitted malaria case in Florida was reported in 2002, while Texas witnessed its previous occurrence in 1999.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have initiated investigations to determine the source of the infections and identify potential risks.&nbsp;
Malaria is characterized by symptoms such as fever, chills, fatigue, and muscle aches. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications and, in some cases, prove fatal. Prompt diagnosis and early treatment are crucial in managing the disease effectively.
Health officials are advising residents to seek medical attention if they experience any symptoms or suspect possible exposure to infected mosquitoes.
The resurgence of malaria in the United States serves as a stark reminder that mosquito-borne diseases can resurface unexpectedly, even in regions where they were once controlled.

World Malaria Day is celebrated on April 25 every year. Know the theme and significance of this day.

World Malaria Day is celebrated on April 25 every year. This year the day will be celebrated with the theme 'Time to deliver zero malaria: invest, innovate, implement.' Within this theme, World Health Organisation (WHO) will focus on the third &lsquo;I&rsquo; &ndash; implement &ndash; the critical importance of reaching marginalized populations with tools and strategies to fight this disease.&nbsp;
Causes and symptoms of Malaria
Malaria is caused by a type of parasite spread by female Anopheles mosquitoes, which mostly bite at dusk or at night. The first few symptoms of malaria typically appear 7 to 18 days after being bitten by the mosquito. The initial symptoms of malaria are flu-like, but an attack usually starts with shivering and chills, followed by high fever and sweating. Seeing a doctor immediately is advised.
According to WHO report, malaria cases continued to rise between 2020 and 2021, but at a slower rate than in the period 2019 to 2020. &nbsp;

The WHO on Wednesday endorsed the world's first malaria vaccine.
The decision followed a review of a pilot programme deployed since 2019 in Ghana, Kenya and Malawi in which more than two million doses were given of the vaccine.
After reviewing evidence from those countries, the WHO said it was "recommending the broad use of the world's first malaria vaccine", the agency's director general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said.
The WHO has recommended that the malaria vaccine should be given to children across Africa.
The world body said it was recommending children in sub-Saharan Africa and in other regions with moderate to high malaria transmission get four doses up to the age of two.
The malaria vaccine known as Mosquirix was developed by GlaxoSmithKline in 1987. While it's the first to be authorised, it does have challenges: the vaccine is only about 30 per cent effective, requires up to four doses and its protection fades after several months.
The mosquito-borne disease kills more than 4 lakh people a year, mostly African children.
