Malaria is one of the most dreadful diseases.The people suffering from malaria become very weak with enlarged spleen and slowly succumb to death.The symptoms of this disease are high fever with acute shivering and loss of appetite.Malignant malaria is a fatal disease,but other types of malaria may be cured by administering quinine.
Malaria is prevalent all over the world ,but it is common disease in all afro asian countries.Sir Ronald Ross did research work in calcutta and ultimately found out that mosquito bite was the cause of malaria fever.He won nobel prize in medicine for his research on malaria fever.Thousands of people living in indian villages were affected by this disease before 2nd world ware when preventive measures were effectively undertaken by spreading DDT extensively.As a result the breeding places of mosquitoes were delicted and eliminated.But recently malaria re-appeared in our county and specially in west bengal in an alarming dimension.Inspite of using mosquito at every house during the day and night.There was a time when quinine could not be purchased without the prescription of a medical practioner and the department of malaria in the hospitals of calcutta were closed.But the sudden attack of malaria in calcutta and the districts has caught the attention of the state government and it has been decided that separate department for treatment of malaria should be set up in all state hospitals in west bengal.The government has taken action to spray mosquito repellent in a bid to control the outbreak of malaria in order to eradicate malaria totally,general public should be conscious and take preventive measures to eliminate mosquito from every heart and home.
