Answer : mosquitoes in usa vs africa

Is malaria a possibility in USA?

Yes.

Most of the US is temperate.  Mosquitoes are only active for part of the year.

Aggressive control measures in the US have helped enormously.

Spread of malaria relies not only on mosquitoes, but on reservoir of the disease organism in the human population.
