QUESTION
Is a person with malaria allowed sexual contact or not?
ANSWER
Malaria cannot be transmitted between people through sexual contact (or indeed, between people at all—it must go through a mosquito before it can pass into another human host), so from the point of view of spreading the disease, sexual activity is not disallowed. However, people with malaria often feel very sick, and moreover, will need their full strength to ensure recovery, so it might not be a bad idea to refrain until the patient is fully recovered!
