- MALARIA
Malaria is extremely common in Nigeria and is caused by Plasmodium parasites, mainly Plasmodium falciparum, the species responsible for most severe malaria cases in Africa.
It spreads through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito.
Why is it dangerous?
Untreated malaria can progress to severe anaemia, breathing difficulties, organ complications, brain involvement, and death—especially in young children and pregnant women.
Holistic support is Rest, adequate fluids, nutritious meals, and fever management can support recovery, but they do not replace antimalarial treatment. Malaria should be treated by a qualified healthcare professional.
Prevention: Sleep under insecticide-treated nets, reduce mosquito breeding sites, use appropriate repellents, and seek testing when symptoms occur.
Don’t assume every fever is malaria. Test before you treat.
