Summary 

The World Malaria Report 2008 summarizes data from national malaria control programs from 109 malaria-endemic countries and other sources such as household surveys. The report describes trends in funding, transmission, and intervention. Graphs and tables display populations at risk, vector species, malaria financing, number of cases, and admissions and deaths for each parasite species. The report also publishes country profiles for 30 high-burden countries, followed by annexes with data by country for malaria-related indicators.
