Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many admissions there have been to hospital due to (a) malaria and (b) complications from malaria in each of the last five years.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) holds data on all malaria cases diagnosed in the United Kingdom by the Malaria Reference Laboratory and Public Health Scotland. The UKHSA publishes malaria statistics in an annual report, the latest version of which, covering 2023, is available at the following link:

The UKHSA does not routinely publish data on hospital admissions due to malaria or complications from malaria.
