How is Malaria Surveillance Conducted?

Effective malaria control relies on robust surveillance systems. These systems track the incidence and prevalence of the disease, monitor mosquito populations, and detect outbreaks early. Surveillance involves collecting data from healthcare facilities, conducting household surveys, and using technologies like geographic information systems (GIS) to map disease hotspots. This information is crucial for targeting interventions and resources where they are most needed.
