How is malaria transferred?
My friend's child just recovered from malaria, and I'm trying to understand more about it. How exactly is malaria transferred from one person to another or through other means?

It is transferred solely via mosquito bites, not through eating together or sharing vegetarian meals. While a clean diet helps your immunity stay strong, it won't prevent a mosquito bite, so please use protective nets.

Bro, it's just mosquitoes transferring the parasite from one person to another. It doesn't spread by hanging out or sharing drinks. Just spray some Odomos and you're mostly good to go.

Since it only transfers via infected mosquito bites, investing in a basic mosquito net is much cheaper than paying for diagnostic blood tests and malaria treatment later. Better to spend 300 bucks on nets now.

It gets transferred through mosquito saliva directly into your blood. I ignored the initial high fever thinking it was normal flu, and it got really bad. If you are having high chills and fever, please get a blood test done immediately.

It's all about those annoying mosquitoes! They carry the parasite and inject it when they bite us. So keep your surroundings clean and don't worry about catching it from family members.
