The severity of malaria varies supported the species of plasmodium. Symptoms are chills, fever and sweating, usually occurring a few weeks after mosquito bite. The malaria parasite life cycle involves two hosts. During a blood meal, a malaria-infected female Anopheles mosquito inoculates sporozoites into the human host Malaria is a disease that is spread by the female Anopheles mosquito. There are two sorts of malaria: uncomplicated and severe malaria. Malaria may be a potentially life-threatening disease caused by infection with Plasmodium protozoa transmitted by an infective female Anopheles. The infection can result from any one of five parasites from the Plasmodium group including (P. flaciparum), (P. vivax), (P. ovale), (P. malariae), and (P. knowlesi). Malaria causes fever, chills, malaise, headaches, and myalgia and can result in death if not treated appropriately. Hydroxychloroquine is the most important drug used against malaria.
