malaria is not contagious. It is a parasitic disease that lives inside female Anopheles mosquitoes. Infected Anopheles mosquitoes infect humans by biting into the skin (with their parasitic saliva) and transferring the disease into the blood cells of the human. Therefore, only infected mosquitoes can infect humans with malaria.

Malaria is in fact contagious. If you get a blood transfusion from someone with malaria, it is possible it can be passed on to you. But, as far as coughing and touching goes, no.

Malaria cannot be transmitted from person to person; the Plasmodium parasite that causes malaria is transferred to human hosts by mosquitoes. It requires time in both human and mosquito hosts to complete its life cycle.

Dengue fever can be passed from a person to a person but the fever itself itself can't be passed any the symptoms can because fever is a flu or an infection. Fever itself is mainly high temperature and there are different types of infections and flus. One of the infections is gastrointestinal tract infection which is a very serious infection

Fever cannot be passed from one person to another but the symptoms can. For example a cold can be spread by coughing that's how viruses spread like covid 19 or sarscov 2.Covid 19 is 90%the same as sars cov 2 which is another virus. Flu can be spread by coughing like I said before. But the high temperature itself cannot.
