Giantmicrobes - African Sleeping Sickness

Transmitted from host to host by the tsetse fly, Trypanosoma brucei is a protozoa that causes Sleeping sickness. Symptoms start with fever, headaches, and joint pain. Winterbottom's sign (hugely swollen lymph nodes on the back of the neck) may appear next. If left untreated, victims will experience increasing confusion, reduced coordination, slurred speech, and of course, extreme fatigue. Without treatment, coma and death are assured. So when the sandman comes tonight, let's hope he doesn't come in the form of a tsetse fly!Each GIANTmicrobe comes with a picture and information about the real microbe it represents. Great as a fun gift, GIANTmicrobes also make outstanding visual educational tools.GIANTmicrobes - African Sleeping Sickness measures approximately 9"x 2".		Giantmicrobes - Malaria

Spread by female mosquitoes, malaria is caused by the Plasmodium parasite (Plasmodium falciparum). Although all but eradicated from the developed world, malaria thrives in undeveloped areas where prevention methods prove impractical or too expensive for local economies to sustain. As red blood cells are attacked, toxins are released that cause fever, chills, headache, sweats, fatigue, nausea and vomiting.The easily spread disease infects about half a billion people each year resulting in more than a million deaths. Insect repellent anyone?Each GIANTmicrobe comes with a picture and information about the real microbe it represents. Great as a fun gift, GIANTmicrobes also make outstanding visual educational tools.GIANTmicrobes - Mosquito is about 2 and a half inches around and 7 inches long.		Giantmicrobes - West Nile Virus

With the most distinct set of eyes of GIANTmicrobes, West Nile virus is roughly one million times the size the actual virus. Although mounting dread of W.N.V. has been whipped up through much publicity in recent years, the infection is seldom deadly. Transmitted by mosquitoes, W.N.V. can give you fever, headache, chills, weakness, excessive sweating and other real neat symptoms. Eighty percent of those infected feel absolutely nothing. Occasionally however, it does manage to get to the brain and spinal cord, paralyzing and even killing the victim. The West Nile - a beautiful place to visit, but you wouldn't want to die there!Each GIANTmicrobe comes with a picture and information about the real microbe it represents. Great as a fun gift, GIANTmicrobes also make outstanding visual educational tools.GIANTmicrobes - West Nile Virus is a little stuffed ball that measures about 4 inches across.
