Malaria By: Emma Bycraft, Casey Ruthrauff, Matt Kolm

What is Malaria? O Malaria is a disease that is caused by a parasite called Plasmodium.

Facts About Malaria O In 2010, 216 million cases of Malaria occurred. O Half of the worlds population are at risk for getting Malaria. O In 2010, about 90% of Malaria deaths occurred in African regions, and were children under the age of five.

History of Malaria O Malaria or symptoms of Malaria have been traced back over 4,000 years again. O The earliest documented case of Malaria was in 2700 BC. O Malaria was named after the Italian word for bad air.

Map of Malaria

How Malaria Spreads 1. Mosquitoes become infected with the parasite, and when they bite humans, they transfer the malaria to that person. 2. Once that person is infected, the parasite goes to the liver, and then into the blood stream. 3. If that person then gets bit by another mosquito, it will transfer Malaria to that mosquito.

Treatments/Cures Treatments include types of medications. Some of the most common medications are: O Chloroquine (Aralen) O Quinine sulfate (Qualaquin) O Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) O Mefloquine

Malaria can be prevented by nets, that help keep the mosquitos out of peoples beds and homes.
