Malaria affected regions

There are about 400 species of anopheles mosquitoes throughout the world, but only 60 species are vectors of malaria. In India 9 species out of 45 anopheline species have been incriminated as malaria vectors. J.A. Sinton, the first Director of the Malaria Institute of India, estimated in 1935 that at least 100 million people suffered from malaria in India and about one million deaths occurred annually in endemic areas. In 1947, after independence, it was estimated that 75 million people suffered from the disease every year. The mortality, as direct result of disease, was placed at 0.8 million per annum.

This presentation will serve as a great teaching tool. Use it as a standalone map, for a teaching class or to aid a quiz presentation.
