Abstract
Malaria has a worldwide distribution and is the world's deadliest mosquito-borne disease. The goal of malaria elimination is also reflected in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016-2030 issued by the World Health Organization (WHO). China succeeded in its malaria elimination programme after being certified as malaria-free by the WHO on 30 June 2021. Therefore, we document some of the key lessons learnt in the course of the malaria elimination effort in China in this special volume, showing how different strategies made elimination feasible in different subregions of China with different epidemiological and socioeconomic characteristics, in order to present strong signals to other malaria-endemic countries that malaria elimination is feasible within one generation.
期刊介绍：
Advances in Parasitology is recognised as a leading review serial which is consistently well placed in terms of impact factor and citations. Major reviews on all aspects of medical, veterinary and wild-life parasitology are considered. The journal provides an outlet for authoritative reviews from experts in the field. While emphasis is given to modern molecular approaches contributions across all disciplines are encouraged including traditional areas such as ecology and taxonomy. Eclectic volumes are supplemented by thematic volumes dedicated to a particular topic of recognised interest and importance.
