Malaria is a
serious and sometimes fatal disease which is widespread in many tropical and
subtropical countries. It is caught by being bitten by an infected mosquito
that is carrying the malaria parasites in its saliva. Malaria is caused by a
parasite called Plasmodium, which is transmitted via the bites infected
mosquitoes. In the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver, and then
infect red blood cells. Symptoms of malaria include fever, headache, and vomiting,
and usually appear between 10 and 15 days after mosquito bite. It not treated,
malaria can quickly become life-threatening by disrupting the blood supply to
vital organs. In many parts of world, the parasites have developed resistance
to a number of malaria medicines. In Cambodia are high level of Malaria disease
around 2008, so The World Health Organization, in a 2008 report, and the global
public health community at large, have agreed that insecticide treated nets
will be the salvation for exposed populations.
