parasite. Because of its small size the organism can be injected directly into its victim by the mosquito. They then travel through the blood stream and enter the
liver. Once there the bodys immune system kicks in and attempts to overcome the parasite. The victim then goes through a series of fevers that correspond to the
rupture of the red blood cells, ruptures which result in the release of more plasmodia into the blood stream. Chills occur as the fevers break and the body cools
off. While a vaccine for malaria may be on the horizon, the question of how that vaccine would be administered and who would incur the costs has been a
pressing thought on the minds of many. Malaria is most often associated with lesser developed countries such as those found in Africa, Asia,
and Central and South America. The U.S., however, has experienced the impacts of this disease first hand through those working in the canal zone of Panama, those serving in
