The aim of this manuscript is to bring our experience from Central African Republic (CAR), an endemic malarial area, during the COVID-19 pandemic. We present two cases treated at MINUSCA level 2+ hospital in Bangui, central African republic, during December 2021 and January 2022. COVID-19 and malaria infection were confirmed by appropriate tests. First case is man, 36 years old, who came to hospital, complaining about muscle pain, headache and fiver. Second case is a man, 41 years old, who came to hospital due to fiver, caught and malaise. Symptoms started to appear a day ago. We can conclude that in malaria endemic areas, in light of existing COVID-19 pandemia, based on similar symptoms characteristic of both diseases, it is essential to suspect both diseases and keep in mind the possibility of coinfection. Therefore a patient with uncharacteristic infectious symptoms should be tested for malaria, so as well for COVID-19 infection.
