How does the increase in imported malaria cases from the Comoros contribute to the resurgence of autochthonous cases in Mayotte?

The recent increase in autochthonous malaria cases in Mayotte is directly linked to the rise in imported cases from neighboring countries like the Comoros. The proximity of Anjouan (70km from Mayotte) and the resurgence of malaria there has created a significant risk of reintroduction, despite Mayotte's progress towards elimination. In 2024, 119 imported cases were recorded compared to 38 in 2023, indicating a sharp increase.

The new law in Mayotte specifically targets recent immigration from the Comoros, where around half of Mayotte's 320,000 inhabitants have arrived in recent years seeking better living conditions. Many live in slums, severely impacted by Cyclone Chido in December 2023. The law requires both parents to have lived legally in Mayotte for 12 months for their child to gain citizenship upon reaching adulthood, a stricter condition than the previous 3-month requirement.
