Abstract

The article discusses the methodology behind joint malaria prevention recommendations from Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. These countries have collaborated to align their recommendations based on epidemiological data quality and refined methodology. The process involves defining malaria risk categories, compiling data on malaria incidence, creating raw risk maps, adjusting maps based on expert discussions, and publishing final recommendations. The aim is to provide transparent and evidence-based recommendations for travel medicine advisors and travelers. [Extracted from the article]
