A recent case in the Lake Fondi region reminds us that the potential for malaria transmission persists in Europe. In fact, sporadic reports of cryptic, airport- and locally-acquired malaria have appeared in the Italian literature in recent years. The following review of malaria in Italy was abstracted from Gideon. Historical background: - Malaria was eradicated from Sardinia during 1946 to 1950, through massive application (267 metric tons) of DDT. - A single endemic case (Plasmodium vivax in Palma di Montechiaro, Sicily) was reported in 1956; with sporadic cases in the area of Palermo during 1962. - The country was decla...
