<p>&nbsp;A total of 190 study participants (64 cases and 126 controls) were selected. Among them, 102 (52.8%) of the study participants were male, and the mean age was 28 years. Males and the age group 5–14 years were the most affected, with an attack rate of 35 and 39 per 1000 population respectively. Rural residences (AOR=3.54, 95% CI: 1.9–13.8), availability of stagnant water near the home (AOR=2.41, 95% CI: 1.15–5.06), having travel history to affected areas (AOR=2.93, 95% CI: 1.09–7.81), staying outdoors at night (AOR=4.57, 95% CI: 1.59–13.14), and not having knowledge on malaria and its prevention (AOR=2.78, 95% CI: 1.37–5.63) were contracting factors for malaria outbreak.&nbsp;</p>
