Results: The incidence of malaria reduced from 13.25% in 1970 to 0.33% in 1983, and no malaria case was found in 1986. The goal of basic malaria elimination was achieved. The sporadic malaria infections were found from 2006 to 2010, and three imported malaria cases were found in Caoxian County from 2011 to 2014.

Conclusions: The effect of comprehensive prevention and control measures taken in Caoxian County is significant, and the goal of malaria elimination has been reached. The imported malaria and secondary cases are future focuses of malaria control work.
