Per your assertions, humans in the cradle of humanity have been
affected by Malaria for millions of years yet somehow, this negative trait is never bred out of the human population.
«Children
affected by malaria miss school, which obviously affects their ability to keep up with their mates.
However, the prevalence of malaria at delivery was higher in the rapid screening and DP group, at 48.7 percent, compared to 40.8 percent in the SP group (relative risk = 1.19 [95 % confidence interval 1.07 - 1.33], p = 0.007), meaning an additional 8 out of every 100 pregnancies would be
affected by malaria using this approach compared to broad prevention using SP..

The members of the genus Aotus constitute one of the few species that are
affected by Plasmodium falciparum, making them suitable for non-human primate experimental models in
malaria research.
By analyzing genome sequence data from human populations, including 1269 individuals from sub-Saharan Africa, we identify a diverse array of large copy number variants affecting the host invasion receptor genes GYPA and GYPB We find that a nearby association with severe malaria is explained by a complex structural rearrangement involving the loss of GYPB and gain of two GYPB - A hybrid genes, which encode a serologically distinct blood group antigen known as Dant

IF
malaria were the single disease
affected by climate change, these findings may have climate change policy relevance.
Thus, most assessments indicate that poor and disenfranchised groups will bear the most risk and, globally, the greatest burden will fall on poor countries, particularly on poor children, who are most
affected today
by such climate - related diseases as
malaria, undernutrition, and diarrhea.
Malaria - Endemic or epidemic parasitic disease caused
by species of the genus Plasmodium (Protozoa) and transmitted
by mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles; produces bouts of high fever and systemic disorders,
affects about 300 million and kills approximately 2 million people worldwide every year.
Climate change is likely to spread
malaria to new areas in the Indian Himalayas, and lengthen the periods in which the infection is spread in a number of districts, according to projections from
malaria researchers in India.But the country's east coast could see fewer
malaria cases
by 2030, because of rising temperatures which
