Is Egypt a malaria area

Egypt has historically been classified as a malaria-endemic area, particularly in rural and agricultural regions. However, due to extensive public health efforts, including vector control and healthcare improvements, the country has made significant progress in reducing malaria cases. As of recent years, Egypt has seen a substantial decline in malaria transmission and is considered to have a low risk of malaria. Travelers to Egypt are still advised to take preventive measures, especially if visiting remote areas.
