La malaria puede ser fatal, en particular cuando proviene de la especie Plasmodium, común en África. La Organización Mundial de la Salud estima que alrededor del 94 por ciento de las muertes causadas por la malaria ocurren en África, en la mayoría de los casos en niños menores de cinco años.

Explanation:

Malaria is a disease that is transmitted from mosquitoes. Symptoms are chills, fever, and sweating, usually occurring a few weeks after being bitten. Treatment includes antimalarial drugs.

The mortality rates among pregnant women and children are significantly higher than those who are not. Clinical episodes of malaria, maternal anemia, or severe anemia, placental parasitemia, intrauterine growth restriction, premature deliveries, and low birth weight are the most common complications of malaria infection during pregnancy.
