For the past few months there has been a growning indignation at the thought of malaria at my college! students have been succumbing to the parasite at the swift rate of two to three students per week. this grave concern has been further fuelled by the helplessness that there is no vaccine for the disease.
hence there is no frigging way on earth that u can shield yourself. This is primarily due to the fact that malaria is an exclusively tropical sickness and the West has never been perturbed to act on the R&D for progress on the malarial front.
This compels me to ask all those budding scientists in general and the biotechnologists in particular ” WHY ARE WE FRIGGING DEPENDED ON THE WEST TO BE THE SAVIOURS OF HUMANITY?”.
Interestingly, it was also a resident Indian British doctor who had discovered the causative Plasmodium, the Nobel laureate- Sir Ronald Ross.
