What is Malaria?

Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites that are transmitted through bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. If it is not diagnosed early and treated, it can be fatal. It only takes a single mosquito bite to get infected. The infected mosquito bite passes the parasite into the bloodstream of the affected individual.

What are the high-risk areas for Malaria?

Malaria is found in over 100 countries across the globe. It is particularly common in tropical regions of the world. These includes:

  • large regions of Africa and Asia
  • Sections of the Middle East
  • Central and South America
  • Haiti and the Dominican Republic
  • Parts of the Pacific islands

You can check the risk of malaria by visiting the malaria risk map here.
