BY THE U.S. GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE

REPORT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR,

AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL

DEVELOPMENT




Malaria Control In Developing Countries:

--Where Does It Stand?

  --What Is The U.S. Role?



alaria is still a major public-health
problem in many developing countries. The
orld Health Organization recently esti-
ated that 214 million people were in-
fected with the disease. Since the early
1P50s, the United States has contributed
nearly $1 billion to combat this problem.

( AO recommends that the Agency for Inter-
national Development re-examine existing
p Iogram guidelines in light of changes
since the last agencywide statement. These
changes involve a resurgence of malaria,
eimphasis on general health services to
counter this threat, and a decline in U.S.
flnancial and technical support.

L0.S. assistance has generally been suc-
cessful in meeting the immediate needs of
many anti-malaria activities, but continued
rogress has been hampered. GAO makes
rcommendations which could result in a
ore effective use of U.S. assistance.
