QUESTION:
How can malaria affect somebody if you far from mosquitoes?
ANSWER:
It is extremely unlikely for you to become infected with malaria unless you are bitten by an infected mosquito. In rare caces, there have been reports of people contracting malaria through blood transfusions, but in most places, blood donors with a history of malaria are not allowed to donate whole blood, and only plasma, thus preventing transmission through this route.
