title: Malaria in Montagnard refugees--North Carolina, 1992.
abstract: Refugee groups emigrating from some areas of the world may have increased prevalences of exotic and potentially life-threatening diseases, challenging the diagnostic and case-management capacities of local and state health departments. This report summarizes efforts by public health officials and clinical health-care providers to diagnose and manage cases of malaria among a group of 402 Montagnard refugees who resettled to three counties in North Carolina in November 1992.
