Abstract

In the absence of an efficacious vaccine, malaria prophylaxis remains important for the traveller in endemic areas. In addition to classical measures to protect against malaria vectors, chemoprophylaxis should be selected according to the geographic area. Besides a chemoprophylaxis scheme for the traveller, prevention modalities in pregnant women and in the general population living in an endemic area will also be briefly described.
