    "It is not too much of a stretch to say that the gin and tonic was as essential a weapon for the British Empire as the Gatling gun." https://slate.com/technology/2013/08/gin-and-tonic-kept-the-british-empire-healthy-the-drinks-quinine-powder-was-vital-for-stopping-the-spread-of-malaria.html

    CORRECTION: Malaria is a disease caused by a parasite. Our story incorrectly stated that it is a virus. Here is more information about malaria: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/health-news/malaria-symptoms-and-causes-of-this-life-threatening-disease/articleshow/66839664.cms

    At 00:36 it should be malarial parasite, not malarial virus. Correct it.

    I heard it was a palliative, at best, even back then.

    Malaria is caused by Plasmodium which is an apicomplexan protozoan parasite and not some Malaria virus, please. 😑
