    Man found alive – five days after the quake

    A man has been brought alive from the masses in Myanmar, almost five days after the devastating earthquake that has taken over 2,700 lives.

    The 26-year-old was rescued from Bråten during a collapsed hotel in the capital Naypyidaw late Tuesday, by a team of rescue workers from Myanmar and Turkey.

    Friday’s superficial quake with magnitude 7.7 occurred near Myanmar’s second largest city Mandalay with 1.7 million inhabitants. Roads were cracked and hundreds of buildings collapsed.

    The death speech has risen steadily since the quake – and is expected to rise further when rescue workers manage to reach areas where the opportunities for communication are demolished.

    In neighboring Thailand, at least 20 people have been killed, most of them when a 30 -storey skyscraper during construction collapsed in northern Bangkok.

    The medicine makes human blood toxic – mosquitoes die

    The researchers have investigated the topic of nitisinone, which is used to treat the rare disease Tyr in humans.

    A side effect is that the blood also becomes toxic – for mosquitoes.

    – They simply cannot take advantage of the blood. The mosquito needs to break down certain substances, type thyrosine. And what they have seen is that this medicine can inhibit a certain enzyme needed to break it down, says Ingrid Faye, professor emerita in genetics at Stockholm University and associate professor of microbiology who studied insects’ immune system.

    The study focuses on malaria, a disease that causes hundreds of thousands of deaths each year. Nitisinon was more effective than a certain parasite drug, Ivermectin, and it bite on different species of malaria mosquitoes of different ages.

    The study has been published in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
