Three methods have been used to try to eliminate malaria. One is to eliminate the mosquito vectors of the parasite, a second is to kill the parasites after they have entered the human body, and the third is to develop a vaccine against the parasite, allowing the human immune system to provide protection from the disease. Which do you suppose is the most promising in the long run? Why? Think about both the biology of the disease and the efficacy of carrying out each of the methods on a large scale .
Health care organizations (HCOs) will need to make changes due to the pandemic. As a future health care leader, how will you address issues like the pandemic from a financial perspective… Describe the financial effects a pandemic like COVID-19 has on HCOs, as well as proactive ways HCOs can mitigate these financial impacts. A few issues to consider – the accounting method to use, human and physical resources (staffing shortages, space requirements, ventilators, N95 respirators, other PPE, virtual healthcare delivery, etc.)

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?
According to the recent malaria report of the Department of Health, Disease and Prevention Bureau (2022), there are 4, 251 confirmed cases of malaria in the Philippines and majority of the cases are due to Plasmodium falciparum. P. falciparum life cycle includes gametocytes that will aid the parasite to reproduce sexually in its anopheline vectors. Examine Figure 2 below. Provide three (3) qualitative descriptions of the P. falciparum gametocyte. Write your answers in a complete sentence. Fig. 2.. Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte in thin blood smear (CDC, 2022)
write out summary on Malaria and why vaccines are not as effective you are asked to research a case where the development of an effective vaccine against has proved difficult or impossible. Please be sure to mention: The pathogen targeted The disease(s) implicated If a vaccine has been developed or is being developed, what kind of vaccine is it (live attenuated, toxoid, etc.)? Does it contain an adjuvant? Are boosters required? Any safety issues? Why the development of an effective vaccine has been difficult or impossible thank you
What is the malaria impact on global health? What are the pros/cons of the Malaria Vaccine impact?
Imagine a newly developed drug that is highly lethal against all stages in the life cycle of Toxoplasma gondii. The drug has been found to be safe and effective both for human and for veterinary use. Although the drug can eliminate infection in both humans and cats, its use in humans will have vey little impact on overall prevalence of human toxoplasmosis. Its use in cats, alternatively, could, at least in theory, reduce prevalence in both humans and cats. Explain this difference.
Assuming you have been posted to a community where malaria is very endemic. There is a high rate of absenteeism among your students due to incidents of malaria. As part of your community engagement explain how you would educate on malaria prevention taking the following into consideration:a) Name of the vector and the species of the parasite that cause the diseases in Africa; b) Two chemical and two biological ways of reducing the population of mosquitoes; c) Two in-house measures to prevent mosquitoes bite;d) The stages in the life cycle of the mosquito;e) The names of three African countries that participated in the trial of malarial vaccine.
