Health › Re: Malaria: What You Need To Know (2022) by Tonytonex(m): 4:28pm On Aug 25, 2022 |
Abiodunspectre: Malaria is a disease caused by a parasite, transmitted by the bite of infected vector, in this case the female Anopheles mosquito. The mosquitoes by themselves do not infect us with Malaria when they bite us. They are only carriers of he protozoan(causative agent for malaria). It is this plasmodium that causes malaria. According to World Health Organization (WHO), over 300 million cases per year are recorded worldwide, over 1.5 million cases in Nigeria per year and over 445,000 deaths from Malaria per year.
Malaria only occurs when Mosquitoes infected with the protozoan(plasmodium) bites a person and injects he plasmodium into their bloodstream. It begins to multiply in the liver and spread to other cells and tissues and then continuous exposure to mosquito bites will make the plasmodium fight and weaken the immune system(body's defense system) against infections. Once the immune system is subdued, the symptoms of malaria will begin to show. After an infected Mosquito bites a person and injects plasmodium into the bloodstream, the incubation period of Malaria after it gets to the bloodstream is 2 days to one Month.
CAUSES OF MALARIA As Stated earlier, the main cause of Malaria (Malaria fever) is the plasmodium from the bite of the female Anopheles mosquito injected intola person's bloodstream over a period of time during which the plasmodium incubates, reproduces itself and fight to subdue the immune system.
SYMPTOMS OF MALARIA The symptoms of Malaria fever are very visible, unlike some other sicknesses that can be asymptomatic. The signs and symptoms of Malaria are: * Fever * Sweating * Chills that shake the whole body *Fatigue * Weakness and Muscle Aches * Nausea and Vomiting * Loss of Appetite * Dull or white eyes * Chest and Abdominal pains
RISK FACTORS Malaria is a non-communicable disease and this simply means that it cannot be transferred from one person to another as in the case of Measles or Monkeypox. The risks of Malaria are: * Hygiene Level: Hygiene level on individual, family and community level is a major factor in the Prevalence of Malaria vis-a-vis the spread of Mosquitoes.
* Dirty Environment: A dirty environment such as dirty pools, still water, water-logged patches, bushes, overgrown weeds, unwashed utensils, open water containers are the perfect breeding bed for mosquitoes.
* Tropical Region: People living in Tropical regions(hot regions) are at higher risk of contracting Malaria. This includes Africa, Parts of Asia like India, Pakistan, etc, Eastern Europe, South America, Oceania, and the Caribbean.
TESTS AND DIAGNOSIS There are various tests that can be done to confirm/diagnose malaria fever especially when the symptoms have manifested. The tests include: * Physical examination where the Doctor takes your vitals and asks you some questions including your symptoms and recent travel history.
* Blood tests: this is the most reliable test which involves using syringe to take some volumes of blood sample for testing against some standard reagents and solvents and dyes(stains). This test indicates the parasite, and which medication is best suited to treat it.
TREATMENT Treatment for Malaria is simple and some times complicated which is why a medical professional should be the one prescribing the drugs. In treating Malaria, these factors will be put into consideration before drugs are prescribed: - Age - Pregnancy status(for females) - Type of Parasite - The severity of Symptoms.
DRUGS P-Alaxin is one of the effective drugs used in the battle against malaria. It's of high quality and it's made with effective artemisinin-based combination therapy which contains dihydroartemisinin and piperaquine phosphate.
It is an effective antimalaria drug that offers immediate response cure of malaria and benefits of post-treatment prophylaxis.
P-Alaxin offers both immediate cure of malaria and also the benefit of post-treatment prophylaxis. In other words, P-Alaxin cures the patients of their malaria and equally protects them from coming down with malaria for at least 1 month after treatment even when they are bitten by mosquitoes".
https://www.who.int/teams/global-malaria-programme/reports/world-malaria-report-2021 is P-Alaxin a name of a drug? I have never heard or seen it before. If so, then, why is it not available? |

spice123: Let me give you a candid advice as a married man: 1. Maintain your teaching job. You are a mother with two lovely kids. Don't let those children suffer for your careless mistake.
2. Talk to him to move to Abuja with you. You are already settled with a job and stable so he too needs to support you by joining you to start looking for job opportunities at Abuja.
3. If he insists in staying in his comfort zone (Zaria) without making effort to get a job, please leave him and go back to Abuja and continue your job.
4. A man cannot be talking of marriage when he does not have a stable income. I was a teacher earning 30k in the east when I met my wife in Lagos. My wife was earning twice my salary. I had move down to Lagos because we wanted to get married. We postponed our wedding by 3 months until I got another job that was paying 45k. That was 8 years ago. No matter how little the salary is, let your man have something doing.
My one piece advice. OP, this is the best advice. You don't need to read any other again. And mind you you, he might be obsessed with your plumpy body. |

FG and their useless policies....
The loan companies aren't a bad option. But the percentage given is the problem.
How can you loan company 300k and will have to pay back 500k.. And when you can't pay it off... they begin to add to it... Why?
Anyway, I should've collected a loan before they blocked them. That's why they are thieves. I can't imagine myself taking loans from those thieves. Serves them right. Nonsense. |

After it's done, I broke one egg into the noodles and sprinkled vegetable oil on it. Covered to dry completely and brought it down.
Voila! it's ready and served.
No frying, no ceremony and still tasted great
Ingredients later . I'm Rushing to Holy communion service.

Politics › Re: You Won The Ticket, But Lost The Election, What Have You Achieved? - Wike by Tonytonex(m): 2:51pm On Aug 11, 2022 |
festacman: Atiku as VP once held former Pres. Obasanjo to ransom by refusing to support his 2nd term bid because he had majority of state governors and federal legislators with him.
Obasanjo ate the humble pie and went to Atiku's hotel room, kowtowed and asked for his 'blessing'. Atiku backpedaled and ran again as Obasanjo's VP. However, having been humbled by Atiku, Obasanjo quietly drew the battle line. Soon after victory at the polls, Obasanjo commenced a revenge war that eventually chased Atiku out of PDP.
Therefore, I suggest that Atiku should crawl to Gov. Wike, reconcile with him to win election. Thereafter, serve Wike a 'cold breakfast'. second term nko? |

butterfly777: Thank you for asking. Though I didn't learn work, I observed that masters often just work without verbally teaching their apprehentices what they are doing. I now wonder if they do the instructions when we customers are not there, and I considered asking my barber about this because I noticed this with him. But I haven't asked. mostly, you will be the one asking the questions. If you don't ask questions, you won't learn a lot. |

ASK ANY WOMAN YOU MEET WHAT MAKES A MAN A "REAL MAN" AND WHAT SHE EXPECTS FROM HIM. PATIENTLY LISTEN TO THE NONSENSE SHE'S GOING TO SAY, AND THEN JUST GO DO THE OPPOSITE.
A REAL MAN IS A LOSER 10X ANYDAY, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THAT PERSON. JUST BE A "MAN" IN ALL HIS GLORY. AN INTELLIGENT AND RATIONAL MAN ON A COURSE TO ESTABLISH HIMSELF AND PRIORITISE HIS FAMILY AND GOALS. THESE WOMEN ON THE INTERNET AND ON YOUR STREETS WILL ONLY MILK YOU AND ELOPE UNLESS YOUR FOUNDATION AND FRAME IS SOLID. LISTEN TO AND CHERISH THEM AT THE DETRIMENT OF YOUR SOUL. but, where and how do you get all these sense from? |
