29 July 2025 (Tuesday) - 2503DM

 

I got the results of 2503DM today. At the time (30 June) I wrote “Well, there’s malaria there. I’d go with a mixed infestation. P.vivax and P. malariae”.

I was right in that there was malaria there. But I was wrong in that it wasn’t mixed. It was just P. malariae. However I’m taking that as a result. I spotted the malaria which is the important part. Speciation is something that I would sent off to the reference lab anyway, and I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen P. malariae outside of a EQA slide.
