Run for your Lives! The Mosquitoes are Coming!
Malaria can be a deadly disease. Organizations such as Nothing But Nets and Malaria No More are trying stop malaria. Some organizations are determined to wipe malaria out by 2015. There is one widely known eradicated virus called small pox. It is going to be very hard to eradicate malaria since it is transferred by mosquito. I think that this wouldn't be a very realistic goal to eradicate it by 2015, but it may be possible by 2030. The websites for the different malaria organizations have ways to donate to people in Africa. For example, these donations can be used to send mosquito nets to many people in Africa where they have the worst outbreaks, treatment for the infected people, or for preventive cares. What do you think you can do to help stop malaria?

I wouldn't have anything for preventing malaria. (I'm not that inventive) I find it quite irritating that mosquitoes are spreading malaria here and there. I also find it interesting how the U.S.plan to try and minimize the death rates of malaria. The U.S.try to stop malaria by making cartoons in the army. Isn't that interesting? I wonder what the world will do next.
