AS A result of tho mote recent work
A of scientists of tcveral nations It
has been proved beyond controversy that
malaria Is caused by a parasite In the
blood which Is transmitted from man
to man by the anopheles mosquito. It
Is not caused by any other kind of
germ, and Is not carried by any other
kind of mosquoto.
The malarial parasite Is found In the
blood, resting In or upon the red cor
puscles. In tills position It feed upon
and destroys the red cells; that Is the
reason why nneinla Is always present In
malaria patients,
A the parasites develop and break
up they not only liberate many small
parasites, but also a small amount of
poison debris. It Is this which makes
a man sick and gives him the fever
and chills. It has been estimated that
It tequlres 150,000,000 parasites to
cause a chill. , ,
It Is only the female of the anopheles
mosquito that transmits the disease.
A healthy person, when bitten by an
Infected mosquito, becomes Inoculated
