Malaria is an infection of a part of the blood called the red blood cells. It is spread by mosquitoes that carry a parasite that causes malaria. If a mosquito carrying this parasite bites you, the parasite can get into your blood.
The parasite lays eggs, which develop into more parasites, and they feed on your blood cells until you get very sick. If left untreated, malaria can quickly become very serious and can even be fatal.
The symptoms of malaria include:
*. High fever (can often be 104° F and higher)
*. Chills
*. Shaking
*. Extreme sweating
*. Fatigue
*. Discomfort (called malaise) and body aches
*. Headache
*. Muscle ache
*. Nausea
*. Vomiting

I did not know much about this disease but now that I learned from this discussion, much more.
This is a disease which is very dangerous and harmful to our health.
I do not know what to say just hoping to find a cure for this disease.

Its heavy disease forms through spreading insects so its not fault about ours. But better we keep ourselves safe from those nasty atmosphere where those mosquitoes and flies lives.

That's prevalent during World War II. We're just wondering, why in this world, almost a century have passed, that dreaded disease has not yet been eradicated like those other diseases in its batch?
