Malaria in South Africa

June 12, 2012 By Malaria Q&A Leave a Comment

QUESTION

What are the high, low and no-risk areas for malaria in South Africa?

ANSWER

Malaria has been successfully controlled in many parts of South Africa, with the result that most of the country is not at risk for malaria transmission. However, some pockets of higher risk remain in the north-eastern corner of South Africa (north-eastern KwaZulu-Natal, with the southern-most limit of transmission corresponding with the Tugela River, Limpopo (Northern) Province, and Mpumalanga Province). Malaria is also transmitted in Kruger National Park.
