My daughter is going for higher studies in the US next month. As a parent, I'm thinking about all the health precautions. Is there malaria in the US, or is it not something we need to worry about there?

Bro, I stayed in New York for six months and barely saw any mosquitoes, let alone malaria. It's super rare there. Don't worry about it too much, just travel chill.

Keep your mind peaceful and positive, dear. Malaria is not common in those parts at all. Just take basic care of your health, eat well, and trust that everything will be fine during your journey.

I was very worried when my daughter went to the US for her studies, thinking about malaria and dengue. But their university medical team assured us it is not a threat there. Just send basic cold and fever medicines with them for peace of mind.

I was actually reading up on this recently out of curiosity. Turns out they eradicated it decades ago, so you only get cases when people travel back from tropical countries. Pretty interesting how they managed it.

Haha, chill out! You are more likely to get a parking ticket in the US than malaria. Mosquitoes there don't carry that drama, so leave your nets at home!
