It takes about 2 weeks to develop symptoms of malaria following mosquito bite. More so, malaria is rare in under 6 month old babies because their red blood cell is resistant to malaria during this period. My candid advice is if the fever should persist, kindly take him to a hospital.
Give paracetamol but if it persist, go to hospital
