PHIL Images From This Week 5814 07/28/2017 08:00 AM EDT This female Anopheles stephensi mosquito was obtaining a blood meal from a human host through its pointed proboscis. Note the droplet of blood being expelled from the insect's abdomen, after having engorged itself on its host's blood. This mosquito is a known malarial vector with a distribution that ranges from Egypt, all the way to China.   20062 07/27/2017 08:00 AM EDT This September, 2013 image depicts two members of the oral cholera vaccine (OCV) campaign team in the process of conducting interviews, here, with a resident of the Haitian commune of Cerca Carvajal. Seated at the far right was Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Medical Epidemiologist, Rania Tohme, M.D., M.P.H., and to her right, was a member of the OCV team, who was entering query responses on her smartphone using a common electronic data system, which prevents the mistakes usually associated with data entry activities. It also facilitates the receipt of survey results in a timelier manner, thereby, enabling team members to quickly make informed decisions.   13516 07/26/2017 08:00 AM EDT This image depicts a female clinician using a stethoscope she'd placed upon a male patient's back, in order to perform a thoracic auscultation, enabling her to listen for any irregularities in his breathing pattern, or heart rhythm.   10707 07/25/2017 08:00 AM EDT This digitally-colorized, thin-section transmission electron microscopic (TEM) image revealed the ultrastructural appearance of a single measles virus particle, or virion.   4958 07/24/2017 08:00 AM EDT This is a 1976 photograph of a mosquito fish, Gambusia sp., preparing to ingest a mosquito larva. These tiny fish can eat their own weight in mosquito larvae each day, and have been introduced into water ways throughout the world in order to aid in control of mosquitoes, especially where malaria and yellow fever are a threat.
