ملخص
Imported malaria is increasing in nonendemic countries, including the State of Qatar, mainly as a result of the influx of immigrant workers. A retrospective chart review of 153 malaria cases identified at Hamad General Hospital during 2000-2602 is used to emphasise the scale of the problem especially the need to create greater public awareness that travellers to malarious areas must take suitable precautions including appropriate chemoprophylaxis.
