There are several species of Plasmodium that can cause malaria, with **Plasmodium falciparum** being the most dangerous. Here are the main causes and contributing factors of malaria: 1. **Plasmodium Parasite**: The primary cause of malaria is infection by Plasmodium species, specifically:    - *Plasmodium falciparum* (most severe form)    - *Plasmodium vivax*     - *Plasmodium ovale*    - *Plasmodium malariae*    - *Plasmodium knowlesi* (less common) 2. **Mosquito Bite**: Malaria is spread through the bite of an infected **female Anopheles mosquito**, which serves as the vector for transmitting the Plasmodium parasite to humans.

SADC Malaria day

 SADC Malaria Day is an annual observance held by the Southern African Development Community (SADC) to raise awareness about the fight against malaria in the region. The day is dedicated to promoting efforts to control and eliminate malaria, sharing information on prevention methods, and highlighting the progress made in reducing malaria cases and deaths in Southern Africa. The SADC Malaria Day serves as a platform for governments, health organizations, and communities in the region to work together to combat the disease. Malaria remains a significant public health challenge in many parts of Southern Africa, and the day emphasizes the importance of continued efforts toward prevention, treatment, and research.  Each year, the observance may focus on a specific theme or priority action, aligned with global or regional malaria strategies. For example, themes could involve promoting the use of insecticide-treated nets, indoor spraying, access to antimalarial treatment, and malaria...
