As a result, it was observed that malaria caused by P. vivax affects all age groups, however, it is a greater threat to children, therefore, its consequences were very serious on the children's neurological systems. Malaria caused by P. vivax resulted in low cognitive performance in the age group of 4 to 7 years, it is assumed that the impact of malaria on cognitive function is not prolonged. However, the majority had moderate exposure, with episodes up to 2 years of age or older.
