A case of locally acquired (autochthonous) mosquito-transmitted Plasmodium vivax malaria was diagnosed in Arkansas in September 2023. This represents the 10th autochthonous case identified nationally in 2023, after 20 years without recorded local mosquitoborne malaria transmission in the United States. The public health response included case investigation, active case surveillance, mosquito surveillance and control, assessment of medical countermeasures, and clinical and public outreach. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment of malaria can improve clinical outcomes and, in addition to vector control, minimize risk for local transmission. Clinicians should consider malaria among patients who have traveled to countries where malaria is endemic, or with unexplained fever regardless of travel history. Although the risk for autochthonous malaria in the United States remains very low, its reemergence highlights the importance of vectorborne disease preparedness and response. Examples of such efforts include improving awareness among clinicians, access to diagnostics and antimalarial medications, and capacity for mosquito surveillance and control. Collaboration and communication among CDC, health departments, local jurisdictions, clinicians, hospitals, laboratories, and the public can support rapid malaria diagnosis, prevention, and control. Before traveling internationally to areas where malaria is endemic, travelers should consult with their health care provider regarding recommended malaria prevention measures, including chemoprophylaxis and precautions to avoid mosquito bites, to reduce both personal and community risk.
