Abstract
â¶ We examined the current malaria situations and its challenges in Bhutan. â¶ Malaria cases decreased from 12,591 cases in 1999 to 329 in 2008. â¶ LLINs and ACT (artemether/lumefantrine) were the main strategies employed. â¶ Shortages of human resources and cross border issues are the main challenges for the malaria elimination in Bhutan.
