malaria endemic regions
Malaria-endemic regions are parts of the world where malaria infections are regularly found and ongoing. This usually includes areas with warm, humid climates—such as parts of Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central and South America—where the Anopheles mosquito, which carries the parasite, thrives. In these regions, malaria is a common health issue, affecting many people annually. Conditions like stagnant water, poor drainage, and lack of widespread mosquito control contribute to the persistent presence of the disease. Awareness, prevention measures, and access to treatment are vital in these areas to reduce the impact of malaria.
