Some parasites do not cause any harm to their host while some cause sickness in the human body resulting in parasitic infection. Malaria is also a parasitic disease that affects many individuals. There are three types of organisms responsible for causing a parasitic infection that include protozoa (single-celled, and multiply inside the body), Helminths (multicelled, live outside the body like tapeworms), and Ectoparasites (multi-celled, live or feed off the skin like mites). Some common parasitic infection includes:
