RE: Are blood genotypes really consequential in malarial infections?

in #stemng7 years ago

The combination of adequate hemoglobin and richness in oxygen makes the AA red blood cells a more conducive site for Plasmodium's multiplication process.

This answered my curiosity. But i am AA genotype i rarely come down with malaria even though i don't protect my body that much.. I have gone years without malaria. Maybe it has to do with what i consumed between that period.

But right now i am really feeling it. Swollen skin after mosquito bites, i might come down soon!.
Nice and educative.

Perhaps your body system has developed a kind of immunity against the protozoa or your surrounding environment is not plagued by mosquitoes. Thanks for reading through

😂😂 then my body system would have to go down to the labor for serious tests... I might have developed the best resistance to malaria.
