Yazan:
Horror movies are all the rage, so let’s get scared and grossed out on the podcast as we discuss the horror of parasitic infections. Parasites are organisms living in or on another organism to obtain nutrients, grow, and multiply, often in a state that directly or indirectly harms the host; and they are considered infectious diseases. Man-on-the-street polls often guess bacteria and viruses as parasites, yet neither are. Viruses aren’t even considered organisms because they lack cells and can’t independently reproduce. Three kingdoms produce human parasites: animal (like the tapeworm); fungi (like tinea that causes athletes’ foot and jock itch); and protozoa (like the plasmodium transmitted through the bite of the anopheles mosquito causing malaria). Prepare for a cringe-worthy discussion on parasites.
