Malaria (from Italian mala aria or mal'aria "bad air" rising especially from the swamps) - also called swamp fever or ague - is not specifically notifiable tropical disease that is of single-celled parasites of the genus Plasmodium caused. The disease is now mainly transmitted in the tropics and subtropics by the bite of a female mosquito (mosquito) of the genus Anopheles. Outside these areas, come away by air travelers entrained mosquitoes, the so-called "airport malaria" from. In this case, all persons in the immediate vicinity of airports are at risk, such as airport staff or residents. Except for a transfer by blood transfusion, laboratory accidents and human-to-human transmission is possible only occasionally from mother to unborn child when the placenta is injured (especially during the birth). Man and Anopheles mosquitoes are the only significant reservoir of human pathogenic pathogen Plasmodium dar.
