ABSTRACT

Se presenta la evolución del programa de control y de erradicación del paludismo en la Argentina analizando a las diferentes intervenciones en su contexto histórico, los hombres que las implementaron, el desarrollo y los resultados obtenidos desde sus inicios, hace 150 años, hasta el año 2000. Se determinan 4 etapas: modernización a través de la higiene, Plan Alvarado, Plan 46 y 47 y Programa de Erradicación de la Malaria y se describen las actividades realizadas. Los datos presentados corresponden a publicaciones científicas, administrativas de las acciones de gobierno (leyes, decretos, resoluciones y administrativas de los archivos del programa) y a comunicaciones personales a los autores. Este trabajo reseña los desarrollos locales que luego fueron aplicados internacionalmente, la influencia de los conocimientos foráneos en el desarrollo de las intervenciones locales, las decisiones políticas que influyeron en los resultados y las acciones de hombres dedicados a la investigación y la salud pública que impactaron sobre la vida de millones de personas, el desarrollo de países y en la mejora de la salud en las comunidades.


The evolution of control and eradication of malaria programmes in Argentina and the men who participated in them are analyzed since 150 years ago till 2000. Four stages that characterize activities as well as the knowledge of every age are determined: modernization through hygiene, Plan Alvarado, 46 and 47 Plan and malaria eradication program and activities carried out were described. Data presented correspond to scientific publications, administrative actions of Government (laws, decrees, resolutions and administrative files of the program) and personal communications to authors. This paper reviews local developments later applied internationally, the influence of the foreign expertise in development of local interventions, political decisions that influenced the results and the actions of men dedicated to research and public health that impacted on the lives of millons of people, the development of countries and in the improvement of health in communities.

ABSTRACT

Until early 1998 the presence of Aedes albopictus had never been detected in Argentina. During April of the same year, few individuals of this species were recorded in 33 breeding sites found in 25 out of 161 inspected houses in the city of Eldorado, Province of Misiones. The homogeneous spatial distribution of the proliferation foci suggests the existence of a generalized infestation in this locality during the study period.
