Abstract：Objective To take a retrospective analysis on history of malaria control in Changning,and provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of malaria.Methods The data about the epidemic situation of malaria and malaria elimination in Changning from 1953 to 2014 were collected and analyzed by the method of descriptive epidemiology.Results The vivax malaria was highly epidemic before 1960s.The highest annual morbidity was 17 687.9 per million in 1962.The incidence rate decreased gradually after the prevention and control,which was controlled below 1/10 000 by 1982,and reached the national standard of the malaria elimination.The malaria morbidity was under 10 per million in 1996.The last case of endogenous malaria appeared in 2008.Conclusion Prevention and treatment experience of 62 years has laid the foundation for the eradication of malaria in Shanghai City.However,the natural factors affecting malaria still exist.Strengthening the control of imported malaria should be the main task in the process of eliminating malaria in the future.
