Chloroquine-Resistant Malaria in Travelers Returning from Haiti after 2010 Earthquake
We investigated chloroquine sensitivity to Plasmodium falciparum in travelers returning to France and Canada from Haiti during a 23-year period. Two of 19 isolates obtained after the 2010 earthquake showed mixed pfcrt 76K+T genotype and high 50% inhibitory concentration. Physicians treating malaria...

Physicians treating malaria acquired in Haiti should be aware of possible chloroquine resistance. |
