Scientists learned the causes of malaria

Scientists came to the conclusion that in the region of Saba, located in South-East Asia, malaria occurs 2.5 times more often than in other regions.

This is stated in the report of the British medical school of hygiene and tropical medicine. The article was published in the journal the Lancet. The report says that in monkeys there is a common malaria parasite that is most often tolerated in the region of Saba, despite the small number of primates in the area.

Farmers draw attention to the fact that recently in Southeast Asia has been significantly cut down the forest that led to the rapid spread of malaria.

The Department of health has previously reported that cutting can lead to the destruction of fauna and flora, and the formation of many diseases, which are carriers of mosquitoes. The region recorded more than 5,000 cases of malaria in the near future their number will grow substantially.
