Yes. Malaria is a leading cause of death and disease worldwide, especially in developing countries. Most deaths occur in young children. For example, in Africa, a child dies from malaria every 30 seconds. Because malaria causes so much illness and death, the disease is a great drain on many national economies. Since many countries with malaria are already among the poorer nations, the disease maintains a vicious cycle of disease and poverty.

Malaria is potentially fatal if left untreated. If you suspect you may have been exposed and have flu-like symptoms, best you have a blood test taken as soon as possible because the infection spreads at a rapid rate. It is quite a common Malady in Africa and is relatively easy to treat, particularly if it is diagnosed in its early stages. ...Just to add that Malaria is one of the highest causes of death in sub-Sahara Africa (and elsewhere),

It's lethal but it is a slow death and it is easily curable.
If you are going someplace with malaria, just get the vaccination before you go.

Absolutely! It's a parasite that eats and reproduces in your red blood cells. It can be deadly if not treated.
