Abstract

Background: To the best knowledge of the author, there is no available literature on the status of Malaria in Goa. Hence the preparation of this document.

Objectives: To find out the parameters of Malaria in Goa as recently as possible.

Methods: By studying the documents prepared by the National Centre for Vector-Borne Diseases (NCVBD) and doing a web search on Malaria in Goa.

Results: It is seen that the Annual Parasite Incidence (API) of Malaria in Goa had come down to the very low level of 0.24 in 2018 and that there were only 272 cases of Malaria in Goa during 2019. Conclusions: Goa is very close to achieving near-elimination goals but will have to take active measures to reach them.
