[Comment] Telling the human story of Asia's invisible malaria burden

Malaria in Asia is a pervasive and diverse problem with about 2 billion people at risk.1 Although Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax account for most clinical attacks of malaria in Asia, all four human plasmodia occur, as do zoonoses involving plasmodia of southeast Asian macaques2 and several dozen species of anopheline mosquito carry malaria in a wide variety of ecological habitats.3 Despite the broad scope and complexity of malaria in Asia, it represents a fairly small fraction of research endeavour and public funding in global malaria control efforts.
