Three women, two from Doornpoort, north of Pretoria and another one from the North-West Province, are reported dead due to malaria. The three, are said to have not been in a malaria prevalent area. One of the dead woman's husband is understood to be also infected. Professor Tiaan de Jager, Director at the University of Pretoria's Institute for Sustainable Malaria Control, at the University of Pretoria says the recent abnormal rainfall and change in climate have created favourable conditions for mosquitoes to breed. Director of the Wits Malaria Research Institute, Prof Maureen Coetzee, raises alerts about their recent discovery of a new type of mosquito that is threatening to spread malaria in the country. Are these deaths related to the new malaria mosquito? Sakina Kamwendo speaks to Professor Tiaan de Jager to find out.
