Malaria in Tanzania
Malaria is a major public health problem in Tanzania. Annual malaria deaths in Tanzania are estimated to be 60,000, with 80 percent of these deaths among children under five years of age. Approximately 14 to 18 million clinical malaria cases are reported annually by public health services and more than 40 percent of all outpatient visits are attributed to malaria.

The Malaria Operational Plans (MOPs) below are detailed one-year implementation plans for PMI in Tanzania. Each MOP briefly reviews the current status of malaria control and prevention policies and interventions, identifies challenges and unmet needs, and describes planned activities under PMI. These MOPs have been endorsed by the Global Malaria Coordinator and reflect collaborative discussions with national malaria control programs and partners in country.
