You can get malaria at any point, but if you have sicle cell disease you are more or less protected against it. Do you even know what it is because it's in completely the wrong section? It has nothing to do with pregnancy or sex, although if you are planning to sex in a swamp it is in the right place.

Anyone who gets infected by a female anopheles mosquito, but some people are more resistant to the infection than others. People who are carriers of the sickle cell trait, or who are carriers of thalassemia, are more resistant to catching malaria than the general population. This is why these diseases are more prevalent in people whose ancestry comes from parts of the world where malaria is prevalent, such as Africa, the Mediterranean, and South Asia.
