IPOH, July 17 — The Health Ministry has confirmed that seven deaths involving malaria infection were detected from January 2 to July 9 this year.

“For zoonotic malaria deaths, two cases were reported in Terengganu and Sabah, with one case in Sarawak and Pahang. One case of death involving local human malaria occurred in Johor,” he said in a press conference, after officiating the national level of the World Malaria Day 2022 event at the Sultan Azlan Shah Roundabout here, today.

“I was informed that the cases of infection are still under control, but we should be vigilant and need to ensure that preventive measures are taken to reduce the rate of cases,” he said. He added that this is because they are among those who are vulnerable and at risk of contracting malaria, based on research and studies conducted by relevant parties.
