Background
Malaria is a serious and sometimes fatal disease caused by a parasite that commonly infects a certain type of mosquito which feeds on humans. People who get malaria are typically very sick with high fevers, shaking chills, and flu-like illness.
Malaria control remains a challenge in many parts of the Sahel and sub-Sahel regions of Africa.
