Fig. 4

Are presented charts on general morbidity compared to malaria cases (a), seasonality of rainfall and that of malaria plotted versus seasonal year on the same chart (b), incidence of malaria in a given area against rainfall (c), and incidence of malaria against season from 2012 to 2016 (d). a A positive linear correlation (R2 = 0.89899) between the total morbidity plotted against total malaria infected cases, b malaria cases seasonality regardless of location scales inversely as rainfall seasonality, c incidence of malaria in different locations of Zomba district plotted versus rainfall levels showing a critical level of about 8 mm of rainfall that leads to maximum malaria incidence of more than 60 out of 100 children and d incidence of malaria in different areas plotted against season from 2012 to 2016 showing a general decline in malaria prevalence in this period
