Case File: The Misinformation Menace
A nefarious individual has been spreading misinformation across the internet. It's up to you, dear Watson, to assist in uncovering the truth.

Ah, my dear Watson, I see we have another case of misinformation on our hands.
This time, the culprit is a misguided individual who claims that malaria is a hoax.
I must say, I am not surprised by this individual's ignorance.
After all, it is not uncommon for people to spread false information about diseases they do not understand.
However, it is my duty to set the record straight and ensure that the public is not misled by such baseless claims.
Malaria, my dear Watson, is a very real and serious disease. It is caused by a parasite that is transmitted to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes. The symptoms of malaria can include fever, chills, headache, and muscle aches, and if left untreated, it can be fatal.
Now, let us turn our attention to Mexico.
According to my sources, malaria is indeed present in some parts of Mexico. The risk of infection is low, but it is not non-existent.
In recent years, cases of malaria have been reported in several states, including Campeche, Chiapas, Chihuahua, Durango, Nayarit, Oaxaca, Quintana Roo, Sinaloa, and Tabasco.
It is worth noting, however, that the risk of malaria is not the same throughout Mexico.
Major resorts and the US-Mexico border region are free of the disease, and the risk is generally low in popular tourist destinations such as Acapulco, Mexico City, Cancun, Cozumel, and the Mayan Riviera.
In light of this evidence, it is clear that the individual's claim that malaria is a hoax is entirely unfounded.
It is a dangerous and irresponsible statement that could lead to people neglecting to take necessary precautions when travelling to Mexico.
I must urge the public to be vigilant and to seek out reliable sources of information when it comes to matters of public health.
It is only through accurate information and education that we can protect ourselves and others from the dangers of infectious diseases like malaria.
As for the individual who made this claim, I can only hope that they will learn from their mistake and refrain from spreading misinformation in the future.
And now, my dear Watson, let us turn our attention to the next case of misinformation that requires our attention.
The game is afoot!
