malaria is caused by parasitic infections from Plasmodium species, which are transmitted to humans through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. The parasites enter the bloodstream and multiply in the liver before infecting red blood cells, leading to symptoms such as fever, chills, and anemia. Environmental factors, such as standing water and warm climates, contribute to the proliferation of mosquitoes, increasing the risk of malaria transmission. Preventive measures include the use of insecticide-treated bed nets, indoor spraying, and antimalarial medications.
