- Female Anopheles mosquitoes, sometimes known as "night-biting" mosquitoes because they bite most frequently between dusk and dawn, disseminate the plasmodium parasite.
- If a mosquito bites someone who has previously been afflicted with malaria, the mosquito can get sick and transfer the parasite to others.
- Malaria, on the other hand, cannot be transmitted from one person to another.
- The parasite enters the circulation and goes to the liver after being bitten.
- The infection starts in the liver and spreads to the circulation, where it infects red blood cells.
- The parasites replicate and develop in red blood cells.
- The infected blood cells burst at regular intervals, releasing additional parasites into the circulation.
- Every 48-72 hours, infected blood cells explode. You'll get a fever, chills, and sweating every time they rupture.
- Malaria can also be transmitted through blood transfusions and needle sharing, but this is extremely rare.
