A mosquito carries round the disease and spreads it from person to person. The vector (carrier/mosquito) is called the Abopheles mosquito. It is mainly found in hot countries and carries a protozoan parasite called Plasmodium, so malaria is only found where the mosquito is found.

Does russia suffer from malaria?

Russia experiences very limited cases of malaria, primarily in its southern regions near the borders with countries where the disease is more prevalent.
