Plasmodium falciparum malaria has a significant global impact, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where it is endemic. It poses a major public health challenge, contributing to high rates of morbidity and mortality, especially among children under five and pregnant women. Efforts to control and eliminate malaria require a comprehensive approach, including vector control, effective treatment, and community engagement.
