Day 5

I got in to see Monica today. Protective gloves, insecticide, net, all that stuff. She looks okay, but she's isolated since malaria is highly contagious. I'm still worried, though. I met with more patients and doctors. Most of the patients will recover. Most of them also look fine; the symptoms should come in waves, every 48 or 72 hours. It depends on what kind of plasmodium that the mosquito was wearing on its salivary glands. Ew.
