- Create and deliver a presentation on your chosen disease in which you report on each of the following in detail:
- Causative Agent: Describe and classify the microbe involved. If known, explain how the microbe causes/transmits the disease or interferes with normal body function. Also, describe the vector and/or life cycle for the microbe (if applicable).
- Population(s) affected: What population(s) is/are at highest risk of contracting the disease? Are there any groups of people who should be tested? Please include statistical/geographical data and trends (from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization, or other source [http://www.cdc.gov, http://www.who.int, etc.]).
- Course of Disease: What are the usual signs/symptoms of someone with the disease? How is the disease diagnosed? What is the usual time course for recovery? Are there complications and/or long-term effects?
- Interventions: Describe possible treatments and/or medical interventions. Is there a vaccine available? How can the disease be best prevented or kept under control?
Videos can be recorded using any software or tool, but all videos are required to be uploaded to My Panopto Videos for assignment submission.

Malaria is a disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite.
Plasmodium parasite is a unicellular eukaryote of phylum protozoa.
There are four species of plasmodium known to infect humans namely
Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium ovale, and
Plasmodium malariae.
The transmission of the parasite sporozoites into the human blood can occur
through mosquito bites, blood transfusion, sharing of needles, and
childbirth.
However, the main agent of transmission of the parasite sporozoites is a bite
of infected fema...
