If anyone in Canada or America was to somehow attain the disease, they would have to receive medication such as doxycycline or chloroquine, but because first world countries don't generally have malaria, there is not much to worry about, but in places like Africa, death is imminent. Two major used methods of preventing malaria in a place like Africa would be Vector Control and Mosquito Nets. Vector Control is the method of limiting the animal and insect population within a community. Mosquito Nets is quite obvious, it is simply covering an individuals sleeping space with a net small enough to keep out insects.
