The Indirect Costs of the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic : A Case of Severe Malaria in Brooklyn
Copyright © 2020, Fleischman et al..
Severe malaria due to the infection of Plasmodium falciparum is a critical infection that may lead to multisystem abnormalities if not promptly and adequately treated. We present a case of severe malaria in a patient recently repatriated from Conakry, Guinea, West Africa, marooned during the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). While the direct costs of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and its indirect effect on neighboring industries have been analyzed, the indirect costs of other ailments in medicine have yet to be fully established. This case explores the ramifications of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on what would otherwise have been routine prophylaxis of malaria in a traveler. Given the pandemic, the healthcare industry has had fundamental changes that have impacted access to healthcare, particularly in the outpatient setting.
