THERE is unfortunately no doubt about the serious nature of the epidemic of malaria in Ceylon. The telegrams in the Press report that in the affected provinces no less than 3,435 deaths from
malaria and fever occurred during the month of December, compared with a monthly average of 531 for the first nine months of the year. It is admitted, however, that these figures are not
final. It has been reported that there have been more than half-a-million cases of malaria, and if the death-rate was 5 per cent, that would give us something like 25,000 deaths.
