17. Global Malaria Elimination scenario:
• Since 1900, 127 countries have registered malaria elimination. In 2021, two
countries El Salvador on February 25 and China on June 29 were declared
malaria-free by the WHO.
• China followed some specific strategies, namely strong surveillance following
the ‘1-3-7’system: malaria diagnosis within 1 day, 3 days for case investigation
and by day 7 for public health responses.
• Molecular Malaria Surveillance for drug resistance and genome-based
approaches to distinguish between indigenous and imported cases was
conducted. All borders to the neighbouring countries were thoroughly
screened to prevent the entry of unwanted malaria into the country.
• Srilanka could achieve elimination by deploying malaria mobile clinics besides
strengthening surveillance system.

18. NATIONAL MALARIA CONTROL PROGRAMME
• Began as NMCP in 1953.
• Following are main activities of NMCP:
• Formulating policies and guidelines.
• Technical guidance.
• Planning.
• Logistics.
• Monitoring and evaluation.
• Coordination of activities through the states/union Territories and in consultation with
national organisations such as National Centre for Disease Control National Institute of Malaria
Research.
• Collaboration with international oraganisations..
• Training
• Fascilitating research
• Coordinating control activities in the inter-state and inter-country border areas.

19. MOSQUIRIX
• A recombinent protein based malaria vaccine
• WHO is recommending widespread use of the RTS,S/AS01 (RTS,S) malaria vaccine among
children in sub-Saharan Africa and in other regions with moderate to high P. falciparum
malaria transmission.
• Malaria vaccine should be provided in a schedule of 4 doses in
children from 5 months of age for the reduction of malaria
disease and burden.

20. URBAN MALARIA SCHEME
• Launched in november 1971 to interrupt or reduce malaria
tranmission in towns and cities.
• Current strategy:
• Anti-larval measures on weekly intervals.
• Source reduction i.e.land filling/drainage through minor engineering
methods.
• Biological control by introduction of larvivorous fish.
• Anti-parasitic measures through passive surveillance for detection of
cases and complete treatment.

21. TRIBAL MALARIA ACTION PLAN
• Predominant parasite species in triabl areis Falciparum.
• Objective is to reduce large reservoir of Falciparum in triabal population.
• Priority of villages according to degree of risk i.e.high proportion of Pf
cases, type of vectors,forest based economy,outdoor sleeping habits etc.
for vector control measures(IRS,LLINs or treatment of community owned
bed nets with insecticides), social marketing to increase spray
coverageandusage of bed nets, community mobilisation by utilising
traditional IEC/BCC tools practices.
• In Forest areas where accessibility of workers /volunteers is impeded due
to elephants , involvement of forest department in diagnosis and treatment
by deleneation of such areas can be explored.
