    The CDC wasn't born as the Center for Disease Control as we know it. Before that, it was the Contagious Disease Center, and before that it was the Office of Malaria Control in War Areas, a subset of the DoD. We can thank the CEO of Coca-Cola for the CDC's current incarnation, as he donated the buildings and land to the burgeoning CDC to eradicate malaria.
    Here's hoping we can elimenate Malaria around the world in the future.

      Kinda off topic but the other day I learned another interesting fact about a CEO of Coca-Cola. In 1964 there was to be a dinner in Atlanta to honor Martin Luther King Jr. for winning the Nobel Peace Prize. But there was a informal boycott of the event from the wealthy buisness owners who were mad at the civil rights movement for disrupting their operations with sit-ins and things. But CEO Robert W. Woodruff was having none of that and threw his status behind it to make it happen.

      Mono is the kissing disease, and you can get it by drinking a pop or drink after someone or taking a bite of food that someone licked or took a bite of. A lot of football players and cheerleaders in high school used to get it when taking someone's pop that was sitting there was normal. That was highly spread through schools. They don't even send kids home with head lice anymore, I can see that causing a big infestation epidemic. They call it "not productive" to send them home. It's definitely productive to end infestations. Lice can carry disease, and the dangerous kind can cause paralyzing in people. Bob Marley had many new kinds of lice in his hair they found in his dreads after he died. They like evolved in his hair, because he had them for so many years. I wonder if that's why they were or are having cases of kids being paralyzed with an unknown cause. Lice can hide and not be known until it populates and may die off before being found. Teachers may be combing them out of their hair. I don't see why they put education over child health. They're convinced they can't learn later. You don't use half the stuff you learn in school. You know how many times I had to use Spanish? Never. Not like I'm in little Mexico. Never had to use any other foreign language either. Do we really need them telling kids when people aren't normal? That's like them teaching a whole new discrimination. I'm sure people know how to use reasoning when someone acts off naturally. They teach that you can't use your own description of normal. Group homes have been doing human experiments anyways, they're just trying to round up more test subjects. One of every color, creed, gender, and disability. That's my thought that is obvious when what has been going on in Iowa, and if it's one State, it's all of them. Like the Nazi Warship up in this bitch. Sadly that it's the truth. Government has a high rate of alcoholism and mouthy. Maybe they should be thrown out. They lived through the influence and participated in same actions. Try saying they treated and treat Native Americans nicely. Sorry, just thought you might want to know more. My 7th Great Grandfather by marriage, step, is Chief Peter Cornstalk, married to Catherine Vanderpool, my biological 7th Great Grandmother, and my 7th Great Aunt, Elizabeth See, was married to his son, Young Peter Cornstalk, making him my 7th Great Uncle. I'm white, but I still got my middle name in his memory that has passed down a couple generations. Ray means leader, it is my dad's middle name, and my grandma's middle name was Rae, the female version of the name. Chief Cornstalk was the King of 20 Tribes called The Northern Confederacy Of Indian Tribes after being Chief of the Shawnee. The See name was Schwenckfeld before being changed to See in the 1740s after coming from Prussia in exile. Little facts they don't say. A train just derailed in West Virginia, probably The Curse Of Chief Cornstalk. A lot of strange things happen in that area. The treaty just said that they couldn't pull hostilities on His Majesty's Subjects, then the Revolution happened. So, that's a treaty the United States invalidated except that Peter Cornstalk was His Majesty in the same sense. Chiefs and Chieftesses have Princesses and Princes, so that's a Kingdom. We are not out of Kings and Queens as the myth goes. Ray loosely translates to King, and it has passed through three generations as far as it goes. My future child will also be named Ray or Rae if I ever have one if they really want to listen. Chief is King, and Ray has the same definition plus more. My DNA test says I'm about 1% Beringian, an extinctrace that Native Americans split from about 20,000 years ago. Beringians are the original Americans that crossed the Bering Strait and populated the New World. I've been really into my genealogy lately, but i don't think it is much possible to create a 20,000 year long family tree. I have over 500 people total so far that include other branches down. I got back to 500 AD on one direct line up through Charlemagne.

      To say that Trump isn't King, you're forgetting part of his job description is Chief based of American Heritage, an elected King. Even Thanksgiving videos describe the Chief that visited the Mayflower Passengers as King. So, know you elected one. Congress is pretty much Parliament with some lower councils. No difference in Kingdoms with elected Monarchs and Parliament or Prince Electorals like The Electoral College. They based President as King and contradicted. One guy said The Cloud is saved in a Cloud, but The Cloud saves to servers as he said they didn't. You have to watch the tricks on tv. Clouds in the sky aren't storage places. Then he said they aren't owned by a Ukrainian in the same breath, one lie to support another. I would really hate to be their lawyer and have to try to argue a hundred times how the first words were a lie and the second ones weren't. Democrats deceive themselves on a hundred different levels with Republicans thinking the same. I'm glad I registered No Party. 🇺🇸

      The whole impeachment process was foreigners supporting foreigners in open court. One guy wore his medals on the wrong side in a US Military uniform that was born in Ukraine. We fell with impeachment with foreign influence clearly stated on the Democrsts' side. The Navy is now challenging Russia while the United States supports a Diplomat's wife for causing the death of a British boy while she was driving on the wrong side of the road, and the UK plans to press charges against Diplomatic Immunity Laws. Countries aren't happy, and I don't know where this leads. Putin supports Trump and accuses Democrats of making up reasons to get rid of Trump while asserting his military is very strong. They did accuse Putin a lot, so I can't blame the man. We're all human, and I wouldn't want to be blamed for a fall. I even got an email from Trump's Team that says this impeachment is a war and asking for his fiercest supporters to defend him while trash talking Democrats, they're just notifications you can sign up for on his website that ask for donations and for surveys. Now Trump supports a Democrat pretending to be Republican, one sided Democrat race. It has become a backwards country, but I have faith it will work out for the best whether we need to end United States tyranny or continue with a next generation. God Bless, and I hope I filled you with insight of the way they twist real to be fake. Never trust apologists.

    You should talk about the research being done on CRISPR sterilization programs of anophales and Aedes species of mosquito (2 of these most problematic genus of mosquitoes) they plan on being able to completely wipe out any species within 8 to 15 generations by putting a recessive sterility gene in mosquitoes which would be benign until it reaches critical mass in the population, and makes all Male mosquitoes sterile. I believe there was a promising study done in the Florida keys about this very subject near me. I don't work directly for mosquito control so don't quote me on this but I've partnered with them several times and this seems like the most realistic way to eradicate malaria. And the ecological effect would be relatively minimal as virtually zero pesticides would be needed and in most places that I've seen Anopholes and Aedes occur they're non native as they seem to predominantly occur around human settlements and not in natural areas so the food chain would remain intact in the vast majority of cases.

    I live in the southeast and my parents and grandparents always told me about when they dropped DDT in the area. I never knew that the reason they did it was because of Mosquitos and malaria. I know for a fact that DDT had a massive negative effect on wildlife especially fish. They had to launch several programs to restock the fish in my area and these stocking programs continue to this day since the population decrease after they dropped DDT.

      @Patrick led But that's literally ridiculous all water can be made clean from everything besides the most heinous of chemicals. It's as easy as making a tiny fire and having a pan of dirty water or even bottle, then boiling it and catching the steam with plastic or a piece of wood.
      your very own source explains why that isn't such a great idea, for one thing you're mixing heat with wood, not a great idea, secondly the material has an increased risk of decontamination, thirdly its not as easy as you're making it sound to make a distillery and fourth they are not very economical nor practical in your Africa example, private distillaries only produce 3-10 gallons a day and require energy about 1100 watts unit takes 3 hours to produce a single gallon. If you're going to use fire and wood you're gonna need a lot of wood and you're gonna produce a lot of pollution
      "Operation costs for distillation can be among the highest for home drinking water treatment systems."
      and you think people in Africa should go this route when most don't even have running water?

    Malaria, like many treatable diseases no longer causes the danger it does in developed countries because of the availability of medicine, even with the continuous introduction of the disease into a country from international travel it does not become endemic.
    In my opinion more than anything stated in this video it is simply the ability for all the ill to be treated that is the main reason malaria is no longer endemic in the US, as well as Europe, even China has now managed to eliminate it.

    • @quitlife9279

      Malaria, like many treatable diseases no longer causes the danger it does in developed countries because of the availability of medicine, so despite the continuous introduction of the disease into the country(thousands of cases a year) from international travel it does not become endemic.
      IMO more than anything stated in this video it is simply the ability for all the ill to be treated that is the main reason malaria is no longer present in the US, as well as Europe, which had it in the past, even China has managed to eliminate it.

      5678sothourn - I grow up in reading not n watching culture ;-))And that is some riding: "The drainage, reclamation of swampland and improvements in water
      management in the fields drastically reduced the availability of
      mosquito breeding sites resulting in reduced mosquito populations in
      many areas. Agricultural innovations led to better human overall health
      and an increase in animal populations. Animals were fed during the
      winter and kept in stables, byres and pigsties. These animal shelters
      and their occupants proved much more attractive for the main vector of
      malaria in most of Europe, the zoophilic An. atroparvus,
      diverting mosquitoes from the nearby human dwellings. Improvements in
      house construction and living standards played a significant role as
      well. Buildings where human living quarters and animal shelters were
      found together progressively disappeared. This human-domestic animal
      habitat separation played a major role in the decrease of malaria
      transmission. Finally, the extensive use of cinchona bark brought to
      Europe in the 1600s and the introduction of quinine in the 1820s further
      moderated disease transmission."www.intechopen.com/books/towards-malaria-elimination-a-leap-forward/malaria-eradication-in-the-european-world-historical-perspective-and-imminent-threats
