Malaria and the Afrotropical ecosystems: impact of man-made environmental changes.

M Coluzzi1.   

Abstract

Subsaharan Africa is dramatically characterized by the most most powerful malaria vector system which accounts for more than 80% of the 120 million clinical cases estimated in the world in one year. Great difficulties are experienced in the control of the disease, while failures, more or less complete, were recorded in the control of the transmission. The historical perspectives emphasize the importance of malaria vector biology and the impact of man-made ecological changes which favour in many cases the increase of the transmission potential.
