Malaria

it is still very much around... but some children have had jabs to prevent it.

Introduce local fish species to where mosquitoes breed.

A person gets malaria from the bite of an infected female mosquito. The mosquito bite injects young forms of the malaria parasite into the person's blood. The parasites travel through the person's bloodstream to the liver, where they grow to their next stage of development. In 6 to 9 days, the parasites leave the liver and enter the bloodstream again. They invade the red blood cells, finish growing, and begin to multiply quickly. The number of parasites increases until the red blood cells burst, releasing thousands of parasites into the person's bloodstream. The parasites attack other red blood cells, and the cycle of infection continues, causing the common signs and symptoms of malaria. When a non-infected mosquito bites an infected person, the mosquito sucks up parasites from the person's blood. The mosquito is then infected with the malaria parasites. The parasites go through several stages of growth in the mosquito. When the mosquito bites someone else, that person will become infected with malaria parasites, and the cycle will begin again. Malaria parasites can also be transmitted by transfusion of blood from an infected person or by the use of needles or syringes contaminated with the blood of an infected person.

Malaria would not make a very good bioweapon. It requires an obligate parasite, can't be transmitted from one person to another, has readily available treatments, and doesn't kill infected people very quickly, among others

Some pills can affect birth control. If your ill this can sometimes effect birth control too. You need to speak to a medical professional to find out for definite but its possible malaria pills may affect your birth control.

Each year 350-500 million cases of malaria occur worldwide, and over one million people die, most of them young children in sub-Saharan Africa.

malaria is an acute disease

Sporogamy refers to the formation of spores by the fusion of male and female spores. It generally takes place in the gut of the female anopheles mosquito.

Humans infected with gametocytes

There are five types of malaria. The types are plasmodium vivax, plasmodium malariae, plasmodium ovale, plasmodium falciparum, and plasmodium knowlesi.

Malaria is so difficult to control because it is being spread through mesquitos. It is hard to control if a bug were to bite a person, especially in a country that has so much poverty and cannot afford nets or proper bug sprays.

The pre-erythrocytic is the gliding and hiding of the parasite and will occur before you notice any changes. The erythrocytic is when the parasite grows and you notice symptoms.

Anopheles mosquitoes are very diverse among the different species. There are different species in Africa, the Middle East and the Americas.

There generally was no cure before they recognized the cause. Bleeding, herbal potions, etc., were used, usually death was the final cure. Those who lived were simply able to overcome the disease on their own. As far as venereal diseases, syphilis was especially disastrous because outward systems disappeared and when it hit the nervous system and the person became "mad" or psychotic they were locked up until they died. With others they would use a red hot rod and insert it up the penis. This likely had a poor outcome with scar tissue creating a temporary lack of feeling. Women were less lucky, they would develop pelvic inflammatory disease and die of sepsis. Sepsis, or infection was a big killer before antibiotics.

It is an immune response that your body uses to try to kill the protozoa that cause malaria with excess heat. This is also why you get a fever with other types of infectious diseases, such as flu, strep throat, etc. Protozoa cause the infectious disease called malaria and are carried in certain types of female mosquitoes. When the mosquito bites, the protozoa are spread.

There are bout 20 million cases of malaria annually worldwide. This is probably gross underestimate. So many cases are not reported. Actual figure is probably 50 million cases annually.

a. Admiral DeGrasse had intercepted and turned back the British relief fleet near the mouth of the Chesapeake, the last major naval defeat the British suffered in 160 years, and about half of Cornwallis' troops were unable to fight because of a malaria epidemic.
