Anopheles Mosquito Bites

Anopheles Mosquito Bites

According to the latest World Malaria Report by the World Health Organization (WHO), there were an estimated 249 million cases of malaria in 85 malaria-endemic countries, with an increase of 58 cases per 1000 population at risk, and 608,000 malaria deaths worldwide in 2022. Anopheles mosquitoes, which transmit malaria, only breed in clean, sunlit water. They typically bite late at night (between 10 PM and 4 AM) and are most prevalent in rural areas. Female mosquitoes require blood meals for egg production, and these blood meals create a link between human and mosquito hosts in the parasite's life cycle. On the night of March 14, 2023, in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, an adult female Anopheles mosquito bit a human to begin its blood meal.(Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)

              Bird Flu Threats

              Every year mass bird flu infections forced farmers in numerous countries to slaughter millions of chickens -- something that contributed to the high price of eggs. ''Governments should consider vaccinating poultry against bird flu, which has killed hundreds of millions of birds and infected mammals worldwide, to prevent the virus from turning into a new pandemic'', the head of the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) said. The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) says there have been ''an unprecedented number of outbreaks'' of bird flu reported in regions across the world since the outbreak began in October 2021. The World Health Organization (WHO) also says 873 humans have been infected with H5N1 avian flu over the past 20 years, and 458 have died.
