世界卫生组织发布《2015年世界疟疾报告》,展示了过去15年全球疟疾防控工作的显著成效1。在106个疟疾流行国中,有57个国家的新增疟疾病例下降了至少75%,另有18个国家实现了50-75%的下降1。从全球范围看,疟疾死亡率从2000年的839000例大幅下降至2015年的438000例,降幅达60%1。自2000年起,疟疾防控工作已挽救超过620万人的生命1。
防控措施的有效性在多个地区得到验证。撒哈拉以南非洲地区通过2001年至2014年间的防控措施共节省约9亿美元医疗成本1,该地区已分发近10亿张杀虫剂处理蚊帐,覆盖率从2000年不足2%提升至2015年的约55%1。儿童疟疾死亡率下降65%1。欧洲地区取得历史性突破,首次报告零本地疟疾病例1。
尽管成就显著,疟疾防控仍面临重大挑战。全球仍有约32亿人面临疟疾风险,2015年估计新增疟疾病例达2.14亿例1。为加强防控力度,世卫组织采纳了《2016-2030年全球疟疾防控战略》,目标2030年全球疟疾发病率和死亡率至少下降90%,并实现至少35个国家消除疟疾1。实现这一目标需要将年度资金投入从27亿美元增加至87亿美元1。
The World Health Organization released its 2015 World Malaria Report, documenting significant advances in global malaria control efforts.1 Between 2000 and 2015, 57 of the 106 malaria-endemic countries achieved at least a 75 percent reduction in new cases, with an additional 18 countries reducing cases by 50 to 75 percent.1 Global malaria mortality declined by 60 percent over this period, falling from 839,000 deaths in 2000 to 438,000 in 2015.1 The report also noted that children's malaria deaths dropped by 65 percent, and control measures have saved more than 6.2 million lives since 2000.1
Regional achievements underscore the breadth of progress. Sub-Saharan Africa, where the disease burden remains heaviest, distributed nearly one billion insecticide-treated bed nets, with coverage expanding from less than 2 percent in 2000 to approximately 55 percent by 2015.1 This region also realized approximately $900 million in healthcare cost savings between 2001 and 2014 through prevention measures.1 Europe reported zero indigenous malaria cases for the first time.1 However, challenges persist: approximately 3.2 billion people—nearly half the world's population—remain at risk, and an estimated 214 million new cases occurred in 2015.1
Looking forward, the WHO adopted the 2016–2030 Global Malaria Control Strategy, which targets at least a 90 percent reduction in global malaria incidence and mortality rates and the elimination of malaria in at least 35 countries by 2030.1 Achieving these goals requires increasing annual funding from $2.7 billion to $8.7 billion.1
