how
impressed
would
people
be
if
i
could
somehow
draw
the
structure
of
quinine
into
blather
.
however
!
it
has
one
of
those
two
-headed
rings
so
i
give
up
.
my
organic
chemistry
book
says
one
sentence
about
quinine-
treatment
for
malaria,
comes
from
cinchona
bark
.
then
it
goes
into
the
etymology
of
the
word
"malaria"
Italian
malo (
bad
) aria (
air
)
bad
air
.
but
"
actually
malaria
is
caused
by
a
protozoan
parasite
(Plasmodium
species
) transmitted
by
the
bite
of
an
infected
female
mosquito
genus Anopheles.
Millions
of
people
are
affected
by
this
disease
,
which
is
responsible
for
a
quarter
of
the
deaths
of
African
children
between
one
and
four
years
of
age
."
they
digressed
from
chemistry
,
but
it
was
important
.
