What are the typical symptoms of malaria?

summary

Malaria is an insect borne infectious disease caused by the infection of Plasmodium through the bite of Anopheles mosquitoes or the blood transfusion of people with Plasmodium. There are four kinds of Plasmodium parasitizing on human body, namely Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium ovale. Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum are the main pathogens in China; The other two are rare, and some cases imported from abroad are occasionally seen in recent years. Different Plasmodium species cause Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium ovale respectively. What are the typical symptoms of malaria? Let's talk about it

What are the typical symptoms of malaria?

The incubation period is defined as the period from human infection to onset (oral temperature exceeds 37.8 ℃). The incubation period includes the whole infrared period and the first reproductive cycle of the red period. Generally, vivax malaria and ovale malaria take 14 days, falciparum malaria takes 12 days, and three day malaria takes 30 days. The different quantity and strain of protozoa, the different immunity of human body and the different ways of infection can cause different incubation period. There are so-called long latency strains in temperate zone, which can last for 8-14 months. The incubation period of blood transfusion infection was 7-10 days. The incubation period of fetal malaria is shorter. The incubation period can be prolonged for people who have certain immunity or who have taken preventive drugs.

Chills, first for the extremities cold, quick back, body cold. Skin from goose bumps, lips, nails cyanosis, pale face, body muscles and joints ache.

matters needing attention

Individual prevention refers to the protective measures taken by the residents of the malaria area or individuals who enter the malaria area for a short period of time in order to prevent mosquito bites, prevent disease or reduce clinical symptoms. Group prevention is to prevent the spread of malaria in high malaria areas, epidemic areas or large numbers of people who live in malaria areas for a long time. According to the weak links of transmission routes, we should choose economic, effective and easily accepted protective measures.
