Imported malaria cases in former endemic and non-malaria endemic areas in China: are there differences in case profile and time to response?

ConclusionsAll the former non-endemic areas are now reporting imported malaria cases. However, the largest proportion of imported cases is still reported from former endemic areas. Health facilities in former endemic areas outperformed those in former non-endemic areas. Information, treatment, and surveillance must be provided for expatriates while capacity building and continuous training must be implemented at health facilities in China.
