RE: Relapse and Drug resistance in plasmodium infection: The hypnozoites implicated

in #stemng6 years ago

I read in the news about some form of super malaria being spread. Is that because of the more resistant parasite??

Sort:  

Exactly, superbugs is the general name for resistant strain of microbes and parasites, super malaria results when the protozoan parasite develops resistance to the drugs which is meant to clear them from the blood, this is an alarming medical condition and it prompted me to write. Hopefully someone would read this and take some corrections.
Thanks for reading through.

It was an enriching experience reading it. Now I know a few important things... Thanks for your clarification.

It's my pleasure.
