8. A Treat for Mosquitoes
Blood test
Rajat is back at school today. He had been absent for many days. “How are you now?” asked Aarti. “I’m alright,” Rajat replied softy.
Jaskirat: You must have played a lot while you were at home.
Rajat: Who wants to play when you have fever! On top of it I had to take a bitter medicine! I even had a blood test.
Jaskirat: A blood test? Why? It must have been very painful.
Rajat: Actually, when the needle pricked my finger, it felt like an ant bite. They took 2-3 drops of blood, and sent it for testing. That’s how we came to know that I had malaria.
Nancy: But you get malaria when a mosquito bites you.
Rajat: Yes, but we find out by the blood test.
Jaskirat: There are a lot of mosquitoes in my house these days, but I did not get malaria.
Nancy: Who says that every mosquito bite causes malaria? Malaria spreads only by the disease carrying mosquitoes.
Aarti: All mosquitoes look the same to me.
Rajat: There must be some difference.
Nancy: Did they take the blood from the place where the mosquito had bitten you?
