4. • Malaria is a mosquito borne febrile disease caused by malaria parasite
• Malaria is a protozoal infection.
• Symptoms may appear within weeks of months or even years.
• Malaria found in about 100 countries in the world.
• Optimal temp and humidity for the development of parasite is 20 to 30 F and about
60% humidity.
