How do insects transmit malaria?
Malaria is a long-lasting disease of the blood. A person gets malaria from the bite of a female mosquito infected with the malaria parasite. The mosquito bite injects young forms of the malaria parasite into the person's blood. Keep using Chaca!

About Malaria
If someone had to describe Malaria in one word, it would be either brutal, or mosquitos. Both would be right. The disease is spread by mosquitos; and a brutal and indiscriminate killer for the last 50,000 years. It has killed world leaders, brought down empires, and decided wars. It plagued American and Japanese troops in the Pacific theater and workers constructing the Panama Canal. Alexander the Great, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Gandhi contracted malaria a few times. Heck, even Anderson Cooper, Chris Mathhews and George Clooney have contracted malaria.
