The relevance of data accumulated during that time period can now be called into question. The roundtable and the Program on Forced Migration at the Mailman School of Public Health of Columbia University have commissioned a series of epidemiological reviews on priority public health problems for forced migrants that will update the state of knowledge. Malaria Control During Mass Population Movements and Natural Disasters -- the first in the series, provides a basic overview of the state of knowledge of epidemiology of malaria and public health interventions and practices for controlling the disease in situations involving forced migration and conflict.MalariaEpidemiologyDisaster medicineEmigration and immigrationHealth aspectsMalariaprevention & controlDisastersEmigration and ImmigrationRelief WorkMalariaEpidemiology.Disaster medicine.Emigration and immigrationHealth aspects.Malariaprevention & control.Disasters.Emigration and Immigration.Relief Work.614.5/32Bloland Peter B1808204Williams Holly A1808205Roundtable on the Demography of Forced Migration.Joseph L.
