1. Mycoses: diseases caused by fungi 2. Dermatophytes: fungi that invade the skin, hair, and nails 3. what is the most common fungal infection in immunocompromised PTs(malignancy, HIV, posttransplant): candida albincans 4. what kind of infection is malaria: parasitic fungal 5. what is the cause of most human afflictions: viruses 6. are "obligate intracellular parasites."Why?: viruses; b/c of their ex-treme genetic simplicity they cannot survive without taking over the host cell 7. ex'...

Pyrethroid-pyriproxyfen ITNs vs pyrethroid-PBO ITNs (2023) Pyrethroid-pyriproxyfen ITNs are not recommended for deployment over pyrethroid-PBO ITNs for prevention of malaria in adults and children in areas with pyrethroid resistance. Remark: The conditionality of the recommendation against the deployment of pyrethroid-pyriproxyfen ITNs instead of pyrethroidPBO ITNs is based on the GDG’s judgement that the balance of effects favours pyrethroid-PBO ITNs over pyrethroidpyriproxyfen ITNs...
