BULAWAYO, Nov 22 (IPS) - In the blistering summer heat, slow-gathering
clouds that promise rain are welcomed by farmers in Zimbabwe and other
water-scarce countries in Southern Africa. Yet the rains - when they
come - also worsen the incidence of malaria.

http://www.jamboweb.com/ctnt/index.cfm?icontent_id=805&isection_id=16The interesting thing about malaria that is NOT generally well known
by the public is that malaria used to be a major cause of death in the
United States. During the civil war peroid many more soldiers died
from malaria than from battle.I came across this information while researching my history tutorial
series of articles.Clearly, there is no vaccination for malaria. Clearly, medicine had
absolutely nothing to do with getting rid of malaria in the United
States. Medicine has a number of very toxic drugs for preventing
malaria, which the population in the United States clearly do not
take. Yet, there is no malaria problem in the United States.Ha, ... Hah, Ha! Malaria more than any disease in the United States
clearly documents that medicine had absolutely nothing to do with the
sudden improvement in health experienced by the United States at the
turn of the 20th century.Just thought that you might want to know. 🙂

And your ignorant, non-scientific lot called it "malaria", meaning
"bad air" which you thought caused the illness. Not improved much,
have you. -

the us, one arm of the general set "medicine". Malaria: was one of about
half dozen diseases common in the civil war, not the only or most
responsible for non-combat related deaths, and all were related to public
health problems,ie "medicine" which learned much from and applied info
learned in the war to general medical practices. Naturally, word play is
among the poorest kinds of support for a notion. -

I shall be sure to write the History of Malaria in the Unites States.
It will make the perfect addition to my web site. 🙂

Ha, ... Hah, Ha! Tell me another tall tale.
Public health practices
Ha, ... Hah, Ha! Tell me another tall tale.
Gee! Don't misquotes have something to do with it?

Don't bother if the above is your level of understanding about medicine in
the US. Just what are you offereing as the reason malaria is not the
problem it once was, homopathetic practices? Was the soldiers blood
diluted to make their immune system more powerful? Naturally it must have
been that way. -

garbage and horse manure lying in the streets. It had to do with the
control of misquotes.It probably would come under 'nuisance abatements,' like the draining
of swamps.Malaria is certainly the perfect example of an infectious disease
disappearing around the turn of the 20th century without any help
whatsoever from medicine or from scientific research being published
in peer-reviewed [censored] journals.History is history, Dim-wit.

"The Public Health Service began an anti-malaria campaign in 1942, and
by 1953, Plasmodium was considered to be tamed in the United States.
Some authorities today, however, believe this public health campaign
had less to do with malaria's retreat than did the country's
increasing prosperity, which pushed millions of Americans out of the
swampy hinterlands and into cities."'nuisance abatements'
Malaria was brought under control by spraying with insecticides such
as DDT, coating marshes with paraffin (to block development of
mosquito larvae), draining stagnant water, and sleeping under bed
nets.There was no use of a malaria vaccine. While medicine can brag about
their toxic drugs preventing malaria the facts are that malaria is
still running out of control in many areas of the world which have
failed to control their mosquitoes and drain their swamps. 🙂
