    Malaria is caused by Plasmodium which is an apicomplexan protozoan parasite and not some Malaria virus, please. 😑

    At 00:36 it should be malarial parasite, not malarial virus. Correct it.

    CORRECTION: Malaria is a disease caused by a parasite. Our story incorrectly stated that it is a virus. Here is more information about malaria: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/health-news/malaria-symptoms-and-causes-of-this-life-threatening-disease/articleshow/66839664.cms
