Malaria Cure

A professor by the name of Adrian Hill is trying to make a formula/potion that mixes with vaccines to cure Malaria. He comes from the University of Oxford. Malaria is a diseases that comes from plasmodium a parasite that Mosquitos that are found in the Sub-Saharan parts of Africa. Mosquitos pass the disease by stinging a person and sucking the blood. By doing so the disease is passed to the person. Anyone living in the sub-saharan parts of Africa are affected by it if they don't wear protective repellents. Also people that visit such places need to be alerted and protected. In 2015 more than 400,000 died and 200,000 million infected. Symptoms are chills, fever, and sweating, usually occurring a few weeks after being bitten. Professor Adrian Hill is trying to make a cure for this disease. It doesn't really relate to me.
