INTRODUCTION The USAID|PMI Cambodia Malaria Elimination Project (CMEP), 2016-2021, was launched on October 26, 2016 to support the Cambodian National Center for Malaria Control, Parasitology and Entomology (CNM) to reduce malaria morbidity and mortality and contribute towards malaria elimination goals nationwide by 2025. To reach this goal, the project has set up four strategic objectives to: 1. Develop a scalable, evidence-based elimination model in Sampov Loun (SPL) operational district (OD) and support its dissemination and replication for malaria elimination in Cambodia. 2. Support scale-up of high-quality malaria control and prevention interventions in five to eight ODs, where gaps in coverage or quality exist. 3. Strengthen national malaria surveillance systems and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) appropriate for malaria elimination and control activities. 4. Build capacity of malaria program to manage, intensify, and sustain malaria control and elimination efforts particularly at the OD level. The Year 5 work plan and budget was approved well ahead on time and this enabled CMEP team to start implementing the activity from day 1 of Year 5. The major activity conducted was the development of the OD Annual Operational Plan (AOP) on 13th October 2020 which was attended and facilitated by the Provincial Health Departmarts (PHDs) and OD staff. The OD staff took leadership and ownership by leading the AOP development process with the CMEP team just providing guidance and advice. Due to the 28th November COVID-19 case community transmission in Phnom Penh, there was complete lockdown of the surrounding areas in Phnom Penh (Boeung Keng Kang 1) and this led to the CMEP team to teleworking for two weeks. The CMEP field activities were also affected and most of the activities where people of 20 or more would gather were suspended, and the AOP development exercise for the Kep, Kampot and Koh Kong provinces was postponed and then completed virtually. It was hard for the CMEP team to carry out the Plasmodium vivax (P.v.) radical cure quantitative training in Battambang (BTB), Pailin (PLN), Pursat, Kep, Kampot, and Koh Kong, but CMEP was able to successfully conduct the trainings due to special approval from the Provincial Director. Similarly, the mass campaign experienced the same challenges and thus the activity in Phnom Kravanh (PKV) was postponed but was completed once it resumed. One of the key activities held in Quarter 1 (Q1) was the surveillance meeting which was held to revise and update the surveillance manual incorporating the chapter on P.v. case investigation and refining the foci investigation protocol. Despite having some COVID-19 restrictons, the CMEP team was still able to complete most of the Q1 Year 5 activities. One of the major events in Q1 was the US Ambassador W. Patrick Murphy’s visit to CMEP project in Pailin province. He visited Kracharb Health Center (HC) and was welcomed by the Pailin PHD Director and CMEP Chief of Party (COP), Mr. Sharon Thangadurai, and their respective teams. The Ambassador met the HC Chief and the team, visited the Outpatient Department (OPD), laboratory unit, and requested to test himself for malaria. He then met with 13 Village Malaria Workers (VMWs) and learned about their work and appreciated them for their contribution to eliminating malaria. The Ambassador appreciated the work of CMEP and applauded the VMWs commitment to provide services to malaria patients. The Ambassador also visited the health education session conducted by CMEP sub-grantee, Action for Health Development (AHEAD), and witnessed the session provided to more than 10 migrant workers who gathered at the HC. The ambassador expressed his happiness and appreciation to all of the workers for their great efforts in the journey to eliminate malaria in Cambodia. 1 Figure 1. CMEP Summary of Activity Progress (Oct.-Dec. 2020) CMEP conducted the following key activities in fiscal year 2021 (FY21) Q1: . 35,418 of suspected cases were tested with 212 positive cases confirmed and all cases received appropriate treatment according to the National Treatment Guidelines (NTG). In the seven CMEP elimination ODs in Battambang, Pailin and Pursat provinces, there were zero Plasmodium falciparum (P.f.)/mixed cases in Q1. There was a total of 22 P.v. cases in FY21 Q1. 21/22 (95%) of the P.v. species cases were notified within 1 day, 21/22 (95%) were investigated within 3 days, and 21/22 (95%) responded to within 7 days. In the partial elimination ODs, PKV and Krakor (KRK), there were zero P.f./mix cases in FY21 Q1. In Q1, 14 P.v. cases were identified in BTB and PLN provinces for P.v. radical cure treatment, of which 8 were tested for Glucose 6 Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) which found that 6 patients were normal and 2 were deficient.

  • Malaria in the Greater Mekong Subregion
    his report provides an overview of the epidemiological patterns of malaria in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) Tfrom 1998 to 2007, and highlights critical challenges facing National Malaria Control Programmes and partners as they move towards malaria elimination as a programmatic goal. Epidemiological data provided by malaria programmes show a drastic decline in malaria deaths and confirmed malaria cases over the last 10 years in the GMS. More than half of confirmed malaria cases and deaths in the GMS occur in Myanmar. However, reporting methods and data management are not comparable between countries despite the effort made by WHO to harmonize data collection, analysis and reporting among Member States. Malaria is concentrated in forested/forest-fringe areas of the Region, mainly along international borders. This providing a strong rationale to develop harmonized cross-border elimination programmes in conjunction with national efforts. Across the Mekong Region, the declining efficacy of recommended first-line antimalarials, e.g. artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) against falciparum malaria on the Cambodia-Thailand border; the prevalence of counterfeit and substandard antimalarial drugs; the Malaria lack of health services in general and malaria services in particular in remote settings; and the lack of information and services in the Greater Mekong Subregion: targeting migrants and mobile population present important barriers to reach or maintain malaria elimination programmatic Regional and Country Profiles goals.

TRANSPORTATION OF THE MACHINE DURING TEST With lack of CMAC transport vehicle big enough to move demining machine from port to the test field and via versa, Transido which is a private transportation company, had been hired to provide this services under close cooperation with CMAC. During transportation, transido took care of transport, safety and insurance while CMAC would conduct the offload and reload the machine to/from truck trailer or to/from ship at international Sihanouk ville port. Road assessment and route selection prior to transportation will be done by CMAC and transido.

To open access road to the test site at Siem Reap, a poor, weak wooden bridge was dismantle and a new concrete bridge strong enough to support the gross weight of the demining machines was constructed. In other area, steel plates had been temporary laid on top of the existing pipe culvert to strengthen the structure and potholes had been refilled by earth/rock or leveled by CMAC bulldozer.

Leveraging village-level health facility surveillance data and forest cover data in a spatio-temporal modeling framework, we found evidence that deforestation is associated with short-term increases, but long-term decreases confirmed malaria case incidence in Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR). We identified strong associations with deforestation measured within 30 km of villages but not with deforestation in the near (10 km) and immediate (1 km) vicinity. Results appear driven by deforestation in densely forested areas and were more pronounced for infections with Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) than for *For correspondence: Plasmodium vivax (P. vivax).
