ABSTRACT
We describe a non-imported malaria case reported in January 2022 in Campo de Gibraltar and the investigations by local public health authorities to identify the transmission mechanism and subsequent measures to prevent local transmission. Vector transmission, parenteral transmission, airport malaria, and imported malaria were ruled out. No clear mechanism of transmission was identified. The most probable cause was a hospital-acquired infection since the case was admitted to hospital at the same time as a case of imported Plasmodium falciparum malaria.

A female patient entered with sepsis and methimazole induced agranulocytosis; and she developed pancytopenia due to bone marrow hypoplasia which responded favorably to treatment with colony stimulating factor, steroids and antibiotics.
