Wealthy American homemaker Mary Morgan takes her bullied son George out of institution for house education, including a journey to Southern Africa. Whilst in Mozambique George is bitten by an insect which crawls through a hole in his web and passes away of jungle fever. After his funeral service at home Mary feels a compulsion to go back to Africa where she fulfills English lady Martha O'Connell, whose 24 year old child Ben, an educator with voluntary service overseas, has actually also passed away of jungle fever. Ben gave his net to one of his students, believing grownups can not catch malaria. The two ladies are shocked to see the high death price caused by the condition as well as, whilst Martha stays in Africa as a voluntary helper, Mary applications the American federal government to alter points. Martha shows up at Mary's residence unannounced and, helped by Mary's ex-diplomat papa, they resolve a senate board on health spending, convincing them to do more to combat jungle fever. They consult with some success though a coda mentions that much more can be done.
