Difference between History of malaria and Sickle cell disease

History of malaria vs. Sickle cell disease

The history of malaria stretches from its prehistoric origin as a zoonotic disease in the primates of Africa through to the 21st century. Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of blood disorders typically inherited from a person's parents.
