Throughout most of the article, Reilly uses the appeal of logic through facts and statistics to build his argument.

This article focuses on the outbreak of the Zika virus, which has recently begun spreading across the world with an emphasis on Latin American countries Brazil and Colombia. There are currently over 26,000 people who have been confirmed as infected with the virus in Colombia alone and this number is expected to rise dramatically to about 600,000 within the coming months considering the location and altitude of the countries and the frequency of their carrier mosquito. The virus has no vaccine yet; all prevention methods are focused on controlling the mosquitos spreading the disease by promoting proper sanitation regarding dirty water storage and accumulated trash. Among the people infected is 16-year-old Angie Paola Castro, one of 3,177 women

Background - Malaria is a water borne disease. It is spread by a parasite-carrying mosquito. It kills many people and reduces a country 's capacity to develop. There are different strategies to combat malaria. Around half the population is at risk of malaria and this disease is active in 106 counties across Africa, Asian and the Americas (see source 3). the global annual mortality from malaria is between 1.5 - 3 million deaths, or between 4000 and 8000 each day. Developing countries are most vulnerable to Malaria and as shown on source 2 Malaria has been spread across many various other countries including in Europe, but these countries have eradicated Malaria.

Working as a medical officer, I came across scores of patients with mosquito-borne diseases. Despite my state having a near cent percent literacy, my hospital wards were flooded by patient with dengue, malaria, and chikungunya. I studied about these notorious ear buzzing mosquitoes in my medical school, but never did I know how villain they were. After moving to Singapore, I understood how these diseases are a major problem even in developed countries. I can never forget those patients with chikungunya who had

“Roofless Underground Dream Houses” Chapter 9 of Folks this ain’t normal by Joel Salatin discusses the idea that we should know where our stuff is coming from. Salatin also brings up the point that we should use local materials instead of imported, it helps the local economy. He believes, that it’s not normal that we get most of our materials from afar and that it is a very recent and odd thing. “For the first time in human civilization, you can flip on a switch or clench a nozzle to get energy from who knows where, turn on a faucet and get water from who knows where, send the sewage out a pipe that goes to who knows where, and build a house from materials that came from who knows where. Folks, this ain’t normal.”

Especially, the poor have little resources to protect from the mosquitoes such as repellents, window screens, and air-conditioning (Jacobs, 2016). Most of the poor live in slum areas where homes are built on top of each other, so that it is difficult to prevent contact with the mosquitoes (Rogers, 2016). If some of the neighbors did not care about the Zika virus, the mosquitoes would dramatically increase in a slum. “Effective repellents are too expensive for many in a country where the average wage is $626 per month, according to the government” (Rogers, 2016, p. A2). Some of the residence in the slums do not allow the Zika police come into their house, and they may have weapons. This is a reason why Brazilian government use the armed force in this campaign (Rogers 2016). It is obvious that the rich can protect themselves with some resources, but the poor face a huge challenge to protect themselves from the virus.

Beyond being annoying and leaving us with incessantly itchy bite marks, mosquitos come with more serious risks. Infected mosquitos carrying the West Nile virus can pass … Human cases of West Nile virus have been recorded since 2002. Last year alone, there were 104 cases, up from 80 cases in 2015 and 21 cases in 2014. Symptoms of West Nile virus can include fever, headaches, body aches, mild rash or swollen lymph glands but serious cases can lead to loss

We have all been victims of them. They’re often disgusted and feared by many. One might think they’re just the annoying little critter that terrorized our daily activities. Needless to say, they’re one of the deadliest animals in the animal kingdom. You might think a big ferocious lion or a velocipede shark might be the animal with the most fatalities. This tiny insect is the major cause of approximately 1 million dead annually according to the World Health Organization. Although this might surprise you, it’s not uncommon for mosquitos to be responsibilities of many deaths around the world. What will astonish you is that history tends to repeat itself. This deadly critter has been responsible for many major events that eventually cause the

Deborah Stone, author of The Market and the Polis, evaluates the premise that public policy making in the government is comparable to a modern day marketplace. The reason being is the market and the polis both see fit to cater to public interest. In the public policy makers case, the goal is to please the constituents so they can be reelected for another term and show that they have accomplished something. For the market place, the goal is to find a competitive balance with ones prices in a balance with other competitors in the market to get as many customers as possible to achieve the most profit. Self Interest is an underlying factor in how successful one is in the market as each the business and consumer is out for the most potential gains.

The threat of mosquito-borne illnesses to the American public has, until now, been little to none. With the recent Zika outbreak making headlines, many Americans are now careful to go the extra mile to ensure protection from potentially infected mosquitos.

The sudden publicity of the Zika outbreak has allowed firms to capitalize on increased demand for bug repellent products.

Mosquito-borne illnesses (MBI), transmitted through mosquito bites, are a major public health issue in Nicaragua and the Western Hemisphere. In January 2016, the World Health Department (WHO) reported

Within Afghanistan, the major sources of treatment for Malaria can be accessed in hospitals, through aid stations which include volunteer workers which enter the boarder from around the world and the world famous Human rights organisation United Nation. The first major strategy used to combat Malaria is the use of vector control, where the numbers of mosquitos or mosquito bites are reduced. Because of the low socio-economic state of
