'Mild' malaria strain is more deadly, says study http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1214539694
The new research has shown that P. vivax is far from benign, and is responsible for a significant illness with high rates of severe disease and death.
The paper also shows that in many cases, victims are infected with a mixture of both parasites and that this results in an even higher risk of severe disease than infection with a single parasite.... But P. vivax accounts for 400 million cases every year in Asia, with about 300 cases reported annually in patients returning to Australia from malaria endemic countries. In Indonesia, the parasite has developed resistance to standard treatments.
