T1 - Malaria Clusters among Illegal Chinese Immigrants to Europe through Africa T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2003 VL - 9 IS - 9 SP - 1177 SN - 1080-6059 AB - Between November 2002 and March 2003, 17 cases of malaria (1 fatal) were observed in illegal Chinese immigrants who traveled to Italy through Africa. A further cluster of 12 was reported in August, 2002. Several immigrants traveled by air, making the risk of introducing sudden acute respiratory syndrome a possibility should such illegal immigrations continue.
