I am a patient with suspected malaria or I am a healthcare professional caring for a person with suspected malaria. What to do?

Malaria requires immediate treatment. In an articulated way and, adding the Research Laboratories in Malaria and Hematozoan Transmitters Instituto Oswaldo Cruz (IOC/Fiocruz) and the Service of Acute Febrile Syndromes of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases Evandro Chagas (INI/Fiocruz), the Reference Center for the Diagnosis of Malaria in the Extra-Amazon region carries out research, technological development, innovation and training of human resources in the field of malaria, with the aim of promoting better knowledge of this endemic disease and increasing the population's quality of life.

INI provides care to patients with suspected disease. For information about the disease, access the folder on the topic.
