Can a person with malaria enter the US?

Can a person with malaria enter the US on an airline. This person is a US citizen living abroad who contacted malaria there

If he is an american with a passport he can come back in. There are no health checks for an american returning.

Sure as hell hope not!

Check out the CDC website.
I believe www.cdc.gov

Very helpful as far as communicable disease.

yes, i'm military and we had some marine go into africa and the all got malaria, at first we did not know what it was so we sent them to germany and found out there, then they where sent home

Yes

However, I suspect that on a commercial flight you could be prevented from boarding if you were displaying symptoms of someone who is unfit to fly.
