People say malaria is common disease with mosquitoes and you have been bitten a lot Are you just lucky you haven't gotten malaria?
Mosquitoes must bite an infected human and eat the infected human's blood, before that mosquito can then bite an uninfected human and transfer the disease. malaria is common in some areas of the world but much less common in the USA, Canada, and eastern overseas countries like the UK, Ireland, Spain, etc.
In the developed countries, we also have more access to medications to treat illness, as well as more access to chemicals to kill mosquitoes.

Malaria is caused by a parasite called Plasmodium, which is transmitted via the bites of infected mosquitoes. In the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver, and then infect red blood cells. Usually, people get malaria by being bitten by an infective female Anopheles mosquito. Only Anophelesmosquitoes can transmit malaria and they must have been infected through a previous blood meal taken on an infected person. When a mosquito bites an infected person, a small amount of blood is taken in which contains microscopic malaria parasites. About 1 week later, when the mosquito takes its next blood meal, these parasites mix with the mosquito's saliva and are injected into the person being bitten.
