Hello!Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of targeted vs mass control for zoonotic malaria. ( if you can also link an article which mentions this It will be much appreciated).
thank you!
Even though genetically engineered mosquitoes might be developed that do not allow the reproduction of malaria protozoa, these mosquitoes would have little, if any, immediate effect on the spread of the disease. Why should this be so? What would have to happen for these mosquitoes to significantly affect the spread of malaria?
discuss methods used to control vector-borne diseases, specifically mosquitos. 1) Is there one method you think is more beneficial than others when it comes to the controlling and prevention of mosquito-borne diseases? Why/why not? 2) Also, how large do you think is the impact of human environmental change (man's activities) on emerging infectious diseases in animals and man?

- A malaria vaccine has proved to be 77% effective in early trials and could be a major breakthrough against the disease, says the University of Oxford team behind it. Malaria kills more than 400,000 people a year, mostly children in sub-Saharan Africa. But despite many vaccines being trialled over the years, this is the first to meet the required target. The researchers say this vaccine could have a major public health impact. When trialled in 450 children in Burkina Faso, the vaccine was found to be safe, and showed "high-level efficacy" over 12 months of follow-up. Larger trials in nearly 5,000 children between the ages of five months and three years will now be carried out across four African countries to confirm the findings. Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites that are transmitted to people through mosquito bites. Although preventable and curable, the World Health Organization estimates there were 229 million cases worldwide in 2019 and 409,000 deaths.…arrow_forwardVaccine development for diseases caused by protists (e.g., malaria, Chagas’ disease) has been much less successful than for bacterial or viral diseases. Discuss one biological reason and one geopolitical reason for this factarrow_forwardIf you are working in a lab and a patient enters with suspected malaria what would you do next? What tests you would run and why? what would you do if the test is negative? What could be the reason for negative results?arrow_forward
- Malaria Where did the disease originate? What impact did it have on the individuals living in the effected areas? How was the disease spread? How did individuals combat the disease? What reforms were initiated after the event? Your research must contain one location in the U.S. or Colonial America that experienced an outbreak.arrow_forwardwhat are the hardships in the way of designing and development of malarial drugs and vaccines?arrow_forwardThere are two tests for a disease, one is rapid and the other is slow. Given that an individual is infected, the rapid test will register positive 40% of the time, while the slow test will register positive 80% of the time; additionally, both tests will be positive 35% of the time. Suppose in the above example that people not infected always test negative for both tests. Suppose in the above example that people not infected always test negative for both tests. 5. Of the people in the population who are tested, 75% of their results from the slow test are positive. What is the chance that a persons has the virus conditioned on getting negative result on the slow test?arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements seemingly refute the fact that viruses are nonliving? A.They reproduce themselves only inside a host cell. B. They contain no enzymes. C. They can change over time, with the emergence of new strains. D. They cause diseases similar to those caused by bacteria. E. They are composed of protein and nucleic acid.arrow_forwardChoose the false statement: O A contaminated catheter might be an example of an iatrogenic infection. The size of an inoculum introduced into the host has little to do with the success or pathology of an infection. O A zoonosis is an infectious disease or pathogen that has crossed over from an animal species and begun to infect humans. O Vertical infections are those transferred from mother to child either during birth or via breastfeeding. Question 21 Choose the false statement below. O Long term consequences to a host that have been caused by infectious disease (such as heart disease after septicemia) are termed sequelae. OPortal of exit" refers to the way in which the immune system destroys an infection, or how antibiotics can be used to kill invading bacteria. O Whether or not a person is a susceptible host for disease is determined in part by where that person lives and how that person is employed.arrow_forwardWhich of the following summarizes the chronological sequence (earliest to latest) of discovery involving human malaria parasites?
