QUESTION
Is malaria a risk in Hong Kong and Southern China?
ANSWER
There is no reported malaria transmission in Hong Kong, nor in the provinces directly bordering it in southern China. However, there is some risk of malaria in other parts of southern and central China, notably in the provinces of Anhui, Guizhou, Hainan, Henan, Hubei, and Yunnan, though rare cases may also be observed in other rural parts of the country between December and May below <1,500 m (4,921 ft).
