What are the different types of blood parasites?

Blood parasites in humans are responsible for Malaria, African sleeping disease, babesiosis and schistosomiasis. Blood parasites differ from other types of human parasites because they directly infest blood circulation rather than organs or digestive tract. Most of these parasites are found in tropical and subtropical areas. Most likely they will affect people living or passengers in less developed regions. There are four main types of blood parasites that can infest and sick people. There are four types of parasites of plasmodiums considered to be able to infest people, P. Falciparum, P. Vivax, P. Ovale and P. Malariae. These parasites usually begin their life cycle in the body of the mosquito Anopheles. When mosquitoes feed on man, it can infect that person with the plasmodium sporozoity, which generally grow inside the body AD causes symptoms of malaria. The disease can spread when uninfected mosquitoes Anopheles feed people contaminated with plasmodium blood parasites.

African sleeping disease is another type of disease generally attributed to parasites of human blood. It is believed to be two types of African sleeping diseases, West African Sleeping Diseases and East African Sleeping Disease. Two subspecies of the Trypanosoma Brucei are considered to be these diseases. T. Brucei Rhodesiense is most often caused by East African Sleeping Disease, while T. Brucei Gambiens is considered to be responsible for most cases of West African sleeping disease. These diseases are usually spread by biting the Tsetse fly.

Blood parasites of Schistosoma may cause a disease known as schistosomiasis. Three types of parasites Schistosoma, S. Hematobium, S. Japanese and S. Mansoni, and he was able to cause this disease in humans. In general, they are able to infect the human host only through contact with the skin and can most often be transmitted by direct contact with contaminated water. They are most often found in Asia, the Middle East, andFrice and South America.

A disease known as babesiosis is generally found after infestation of the blood parasites of the species of Babesia. B. Microti and B. Divergens are considered the only species of babesia capable of infecting people. Babesiosis usually spreads to a person using tick bite.

Unlike malaria, babesiosis cannot normally spread from an infected person to an uninfected tick that bitten this person. Babesiosis may be the most geographically widespread diseases caused by human blood parasites. You can find it in Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia and North America.
