各种形式和不同规模的人的流动在寄生虫-媒介-人的疟疾方程中发挥着重要作用。它们助长了疟疾的传播，传播感染，使未免疫的人面临感染风险，并使疟疾控制措施复杂化。概述了疟疾风险的性质，然后以区域实例(东南亚、南印度、拉丁美洲和热带非洲)说明了移动和风险之间的关系。在欧洲基本上没有疟疾的温带地区，人们对“输入性”疟疾病例给予了一些考虑。虽然认识到人口流动的重要性，但人口流动和其他人为因素(如人口的分布和构成、社会组织和经济活动)没有受到与疟疾寄生虫和病媒同等的关注。生物医学和社会科学家需要更多跨学科的方法。
Movements of people in a variety of forms and at a variety of scales play an important role in the malaria equation of parasites-vectors-people. They contribute to the transmission of malaria, spreading infection and exposing non-immune people to risk of infection, and they complicate measures for the control of malaria. The nature of malaria risk is outlined and then relationships between movements and risks are illustrated in regional examples (Southeast Asia, south India, Latin America and tropical Africa). Some consideration is given to cases of 'imported' malaria in the largely malaria-free temperate lands of Europe. While the significance of population movements is recognised, they and other human factors (e.g. distribution and composition of population, social organisation and economic activities) do not receive attention comparable to that given to malaria parasites and vectors. More interdisciplinary approaches by biomedical and social scientists are needed.
