CDC issues alert after cases of malaria were acquired locally in Texas and Florida
www.nbcnews.com CDC issues alert after cases of malaria were acquired locally in Texas and Florida
The cases were the first in 20 years to be acquired in the U.S., with no links to travel outside the country.
Article doesn't mention which species are involved. I'm assuming Anopheles quadrimaculatus, but I'm curious how well other vector species (e.g. Aedes) transmit the disease. Anyone have any data? Article image clearly isn't Anopheles quadrimaculatus.
