Why Do Mosquitoes Kill More Humans Than Humans?
WouterAmong all the animals on Earth, mosquitoes are the worst killers. They are responsible for causing more human deaths than any other animal on the planet.
The mosquito can carry and transmit a variety of infectious diseases to humans. Some of these diseases include malaria, West Nile virus, yellow fever and dengue.
Mosquitoes can spread disease to humans by feeding on human blood or the blood of other animals. They can also spread bacteria, viruses and parasites through bites.
There are more than 3,500 species of mosquito on the planet. They are a common insect found in virtually all parts of the world. They have long, tubular mouthparts for sucking up fluids.
They are attracted to people who have a high level of lactic acid, uric acid or lactic acid in their breath. They can also attack pregnant women, which causes them to breathe 20 percent more carbon dioxide.
They can also transmit a variety of disabling diseases to humans. Some of these diseases include dengue hemorrhagic fever, Japanese encephalitis, Western equine encephalitis, LaCrosse virus, Zika virus, and malaria.
The mosquito is a disease vector, meaning that it can carry and transmit infectious pathogens, such as encephalitis, to other animals and humans. They are also known to carry and transmit Plasmodium parasites, which cause malaria. They are also known to carry and transmit the chikungunya virus, which is considered a serious and fatal illness.
The CDC (Communicable Disease Center) was founded in 1946. It was originally known as the Office of Malaria Control. It was created to protect U.S. troops from malaria. In the mid 1950s, the United States curbed the spread of many mosquito-borne illnesses.
