In what place malaria does not occur why
Answers
Explanation:
Where malaria is found depends mainly on climatic factors such as temperature, humidity, and rainfall. Malaria is transmitted in tropical and subtropical areas, where
Anopheles mosquitoes can survive and multiply, and
Malaria parasites can complete their growth cycle in the mosquitoes (“extrinsic incubation period”).
Temperature is particularly critical. For example, at temperatures below 20°C (68°F), Plasmodium falciparum (which causes severe malaria) cannot complete its growth cycle in the Anopheles mosquito, and thus cannot be transmitted.
Map of Malaria endemic areas in the world.
This map shows an approximation of the parts of the world where malaria transmission occurs.
In many malaria-endemic countries, malaria transmission does not occur in all parts of the country. Even within tropical and subtropical areas, transmission will not occur
At very high altitudes;
During colder seasons in some areas;
In deserts (excluding the oases); and
In some countries where transmission has been interrupted through successful control/elimination programs.
Generally, in warmer regions closer to the equator
Transmission will be more intense, and
Malaria is transmitted year-round.
The highest transmission is found in Africa South of the Sahara and in parts of Oceania such as Papua New Guinea.
In cooler regions, transmission will be less intense and more seasonal. There, P. vivax might be more prevalent because it is more tolerant of lower ambient temperatures.
In many temperate areas, such as western Europe and the United States, economic development and public health measures have succeeded in eliminating malaria. However, most of these areas have Anopheles mosquitoes that can transmit malaria, and reintroduction of the disease is a constant risk.

Answer: malaria happens in every place but it is less in winters and cold places because the parasite with spreads malaria loves warm weather and hates the cold
