His physical examination was generally satisfactory, with a pulse of 90 beats per minute, and multiple lymphadenopathy and hepatomegaly. No bacteria were found in cerebrospinal fluid smears of lumbar puncture, but a flagellum, elongated nucleus with blue and red cytoplasm were found in the blood by Giemsa staining of thin blood smears. The family reported that the patient had been engaged in transportation business in Africa for many years. 1. What do you think is the most likely disease for this patient? Malaria
