Malaria is an infectious disease that is caused by mosquito-borne plasmodium parasite which infects the red blood cells. It s one of the deadliest diseases in India. There s no vaccine for malaria yet and immunity occurs naturally through repeated infection. Common symptoms are fever, chills, vomiting, nausea, body ache, headache, cough and diarrhoea. If untreated, it can lead to complications like jaundice, dehydration, anaemia, brain malaria, liver failure and kidney failure. Children, pregnant women, and the elderly anyone with decreased immunity is at a greater risk.
