Burma's border towns with Thailand are highly risk of deadly malaria which urgently needed containment, the World Health Organization (WHO) said yesterday.
Malaria is one of the major public health in Burma with around 40.6 million people out of 59 million population at risk, said Dr Leonard Ortega, Medical Officer of WHO Country Office in Burma.
Vulnerable people are mostly in rural, forestry and border areas, which are far from public health care service, he said.
