Abstract:
A marked difference in malaria incidence amongst labour imported for construction and local residents was observed in a study following the outbreak of malaria in Panaji (Goa) in 1986. Water stagnation in and around the construction was the main breeding site for An. stephensi and the intensity of malaria transmission was dependent on the area under construction.
