This project aims to achieve an understanding of the countries that have been affected by this disease mostly spreading awareness to more humid and hot places that have a higher chance of infection. This project Showcases the number of reported cases and deaths malaria has caused between the 1900's to the 2000's.
I have understood how exactly malaria is contracted/spreaded, promoting ways of prevent individuals from catching it i.e. spraying insect repellent in room, using functional mosquito net above individuals bed or being in a open clean environment. Overall, this project demonstrates how dangerous malaria is in countries especially in the larger areas of Africa and Asia through statistical, analytical data and visulisations that I have presented.
