Interesting post about viral particcals found in Plasmodium parasite that causes Maleria. Personally since a virus is classified as a parasite, I think they ought to experiment with anti viral drugs on Malaria. I have a friend who was a missionary to Africa many years back. I suggested he treat his malarial relapses with natropathic anti viral methods. (specifically L-lysine, an amino acid found to be anti viral) He got better and hasn't had a relaps in 5 years. Not scientific certainly, but noteworty. And from my own research I believe most parasitic infections are just vetors for a virus or bacteria that causes the real illness. BUT thats a whole nother thead!
