Malaria is another disease caused by the mosquito. The world health organization estimated that there have been around 228 million cases of malaria just in 2018, with most cases taking place on the African continent. In addition, about 405,000 people died in 2018 from this dangerous disease due to the massive arrival of mosquitoes in the region.
The parasite “travels” from mosquito to host, causing those infected to experience severe flu-like symptoms, which can often lead to serious complications. Therefore, leading private organizations such as the WHO, and many governments are still working hard to dramatically drop the number of infected cases each year.

This was very enlightening. I appreciate all the information that I learned about these diseases. I realize that many of these diseases can have outbreaks in India and Africa. I hope the organizations can battle these diseases in Africa and India- Doctors Without Borders, United Nations, world Health organization.
Very informative information !!!
The first Smallpox Vaccine that actually worked was created in 1796 by Edward Jenner.
great read!
I guess having worked in the medical field twice in my life gave me the knowledge of recognizing eight of these deadly diseases and viruses. I am not a computer genius and I know it. That leaves me wondering why, when and how Bill Gates has become an immunologist.
