La malaria es uno de los grandes males, una de las grandes plagas que azota a los trópicos. Fué en el pasado uno de los terrores de los moradores de estas regiones hasta tanto se descubrió su causa, forma de trasmisión, tratamiento y medidas sanitarias para su control. De aquella época a esta parte ha continuado siendo uno de los grandes flagelos de la humanidad en estas tierras pero no en la forma en que lo era en aquellos tiempos. Fue una de las causas principales de fracaso de los Franceses en la construcción del Canal de Panamá, obra llevada a feliz éxito por los Americanos al poner en ejecución medidas preventivas contra esta enfermedad.
