Malaria in Italy - Migrants Are Not the Cause.

Giovanni Benelli1, Marco Pombi2, Domenico Otranto3.   

Abstract

Recently, five cases of malaria were reported in Italy. These people had not travelled abroad, prompting some media and political organizations to fuel a climate of fear by connecting the cases with migrants coming into the country. Here, we discuss scientific data highlighting the limited risk of malaria reintroduction in Italy.
