About This Statistic

Incidence of malaria is the number of new cases of malaria in a year per 1,000 population at risk.

Values use one fixed 2024 reference year from World Development Indicators series SH.MLR.INCD.P3. MapTheory excludes aggregates, missing/non-finite values, and geographies without an ISO 3166-1 numeric mapping; it does not interpolate missing countries.

Methodology

Incidence of malaria is the number of new cases of malaria in a year per 1,000 population at risk.
