질본 "국내 말라리아 2021년까지 재퇴치"… 2024년 WHO 인증 목표
South Korea plans to eradicate malaria in the country by 2021 and get international recognition as a malaria-free nation.
South Korea currently has the most reported cases of the disease among OECD countries, with one in a hundred-thousand people being infected last year.
Almost 90 percent of those cases occurred near the demilitarized zone.
