Question

How can malaria spread from person to person

Open in App
Solution

Malaria is spread exclusively by female mosquitoes carrying the disease. Male mosquitoes, curiously, do not feed on blood unlike their female counterparts - meaning it is virtually impossible for them to transfer the disease from one person to another.

Hope it helps
