Cerebral Malaria.

Malaria is an infectious disease spread by mosquitoes that affects humans and other species. Malaria causes symptoms that usually include fever, tiredness, diarrhea, and headaches. This can cause yellow skin, seizures, coma or death in extreme cases. Symptoms usually start ten to fifteen days after an infected mosquito has bitten them. If not treated appropriately, people may experience recurrences of the disease months later. Reinfection typically induces milder signs in those that have just survived an infection. This partial resistance disappears over months to years, if the person is not exposed to malaria continuously. Malaria is caused by single-celled Plasmodium group microorganisms. The disease is most commonly spread by an infected female Anopheles mosquito. The mosquito bite introduces the mosquito saliva parasites into the blood of a person.
