Malaria is one of the more important public health problems in Peru and the world.Besides the human costs, that are the most important, malaria has an economic impact. Thispaper estimates the cost that malaria has for the peruvian society in 119.5 million of Soles in1998, equal to 1.5 per cent of the total health expenditures. Because these costs are principallyborned by the families, that try to recuperate them by additional work efforts, they are not wellperceived by the society and the disease is subvalorated in public policies. |
