The flowchart of 1-3-7 strategy implementation (IRS: indoor residual spraying. RACD: reactive case detection. P.v: Plasmodium vivax. P.f: Plasmodium falciparum. 1-3-7 strategy: A diagnosed malaria case will be reported within 1 day, and a case investigation will be conducted within 3 days to identify whether the case is indigenous or imported case for further response. The focus caused by the indigenous case is considered as an active focus with response activities such as IRS and RACD that will be done within 7 days. Classification of focus: the imported P. vivax cases occurred in the transmission season will be responded as active focus due to the possibility of local transmission, while imported P. falciparum cases and other species as well as P. vivax cases occurred in non-transmission season would be treated as inactive focus with only individual case treatment due to no transmission conditions)
