No. No known lasting benefits from medication.

Also malaria isn’t a disease you get once and done.

I don’t ever remember an injectable malaria prophylaxis or at least not in the late 80s & 90s

It is interesting find above but I don’t know the correlation. COVID-19 is unlikely to be found in areas with current malaria or Dengue outbreaks because of warmer conditions.
