🧬 Understanding the Malaria Blood Cycle

Malaria remains one of the most significant infectious diseases globally, transmitted through the bite of Anopheles mosquitoes. This poster illustrates the blood cycle of the malaria parasite — from mosquito transmission to liver infection and red blood cell invasion.

🔹 Key Stages:
1. Mosquito bite introduces Plasmodium parasites into the bloodstream.
2. Parasites infect liver cells and multiply.
3. They re-enter the bloodstream, invading red blood cells.
4. Another mosquito bite transmits the infection to a new host.

This visual is designed for students, researchers, and healthcare professionals to better understand the parasitic life cycle — a vital step toward effective diagnosis, prevention, and treatment.
