Malaria in Saudi Arabia
Keyword(s):
In the 1940s Anopheles mosquitoes were abundant about the wells and marshy areas in Saudi Arabia. Nearly 100% of the population in many villages and oases had suffered from malaria at one time or another. However, the progress made in the malaria program in Saudi Arabia from the time of its inception in 1948 is possibly one of the most significant achievements in public health in the Kingdom over the last 40 years. The challenge which the country now faces is to control malaria in the Southern Province and in the residual foci in the Western Province, while maintaining the rest of the country malaria free.
