Abstract

Fatal infectious disease acquired during international travel is less likely to be captured through existing surveillance when diagnosis is delayed or missed, especially as autopsy rates decline. Death of a young girl owing to malaria demonstrates needs for increased examination of travel-related deaths through postmortem investigation, autopsy, and expanded surveillance. Published 2013. This article is a U.S. Government work and is in the public domain in the USA.
