8. Malaria is one of the oldest
diseases known to man. It is
stoppable, yet 1 to 2 million
people die of it every year. I
learned that there are several
types of malaria, and it
reproduces in the liver, but
affects the blood. The thing
that interested me most was
how it affects the blood and
its long history. Even though it
is easy to treat, this disease
has killed millions of people.
