Why is treatment sometimes done earlier than the payment?
When a case is urgent and vital, hospitals often proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalisation of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts. That’s why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

About infections
Malaria is a potentially life-threatening infectious disease caused by parasites transmitted to humans through the bite of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. Once inside the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver and then infect red blood cells, causing recurrent cycles of symptoms, including high fever, chills, fatigue, and, in severe cases, organ damage or failure.This stage of the disease is defined by the evidence of vital organ dysfunction.

Background
Babagana was feeling fine until five days ago when he got sick with symptoms like fever, headache, no appetite, chills, feeling unwell all over, and lower belly pain. Babagana lives in Nigeria and enjoys playing table tennis and sewing.
Medical history
Babagana got sick on July 22, 2023. He had a fever, was throwing up, had a headache, didn't feel like eating, and felt dizzy for five days. Doctors did some initial tests and found out he had both malaria and enteric fever. He received treatment and was able to go home on July 25, 2023.
Prognosis
Malaria should be treated promptly with the use of antimalarial drugs. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications and even death. It can result in organ failure, severe anemia, neurological issues, and in some cases, prove fatal, making early diagnosis and treatment crucial for preventing these life-threatening consequences.
