Malaria continues to be a public health problem in many African and Southeast Asian nations, including India, despite improvements in malaria-related morbidity and mortality.

With data from the 69th round of the National Sample Survey (NSS), a cross-sectional study was carried out in Haryana to investigate the influence of climatic and socioeconomic factors in predicting population vulnerability to malaria in India.

The study confirms that households in high and moderately high climatically vulnerable states were more likely to experience malaria.

A further noteworthy finding of this study is that urban households are more susceptible to malaria.

One cannot undervalue the significance of waste collection and sustainable disposal of it, a lack of which makes urban homes more susceptible to malaria.

This may also be the result of spatial changes brought on by:

Results from this study also show how crucial it is to include local, district, and state-level malaria management programmes with climate change.

Programmes for behavioral change communication, and awareness must be paired with this.

Recognizing that a rise in living standards will significantly help combat the malaria epidemic is vital.

Nevertheless, targeted preventive actions taken by state and local governments can significantly address the problem and should support all-encompassing development efforts.
