Something I learned today

Alexander the great was dead of malaria!

So malaria research is important! It could have changed the western history, since Julius Caesar and Napoleon also visited Egypt (where Alexander the great attracted malaria) later, but they both left Africa in good health. It might have been due to the improved knowledge on malaria prevention!
