Malaria Infected Mosquitoes Express Enhanced Attraction to Human Odor

“There
is much evidence that some pathogens manipulate the behaviour of their
mosquito hosts to enhance pathogen transmission. However, it is unknown
whether this phenomenon exists in the interaction of Anopheles gambiae
sensu stricto with the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum - one of
the most important interactions in the context of humanity, with malaria
causing over 200 million human cases and over 770 thousand deaths each
year.”

Why vector mosquitoes don’t get affected by the viruses/plasmodium they transmit?
https://www.researchgate.net/post/Why...
“In
most cases of biological/obligatory transmission, there is a
mutualistic or a symbiotic relationship of some kind between insect
vectors and transmitted pathogens, which usually indicates a long
evolutionary relationship. In a few cases however, the pathogen affects
the vector negatively but not in a very serious way since in many cases
the vector is the only way for pathogen transmission in nature.”
