Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite. It is primarily transmitted to humans through the bite of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. The parasites multiply in the liver and then infect red blood cells, leading to recurrent episodes of fever, chills, and flu-like symptoms. If left untreated, malaria can be life-threatening, particularly in vulnerable populations such as children and pregnant women.
