Plasmodium causes an infection known as malaria, which is common in parts of the Americas, Asia, and Africa. Plasmodium always has two host in its life cycle, the mosquito vector and the veretbrate host.

Now malaria can actually lead to cancer, but this is with the combination of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) that it leads to a type of cancer called Burkitt's lymphoma which occurs in children in Sub-Saharan Africa.
