Consider following statements with reference to Sleeping sickness disease It is transmitte...........

Explanation:

Recently, Togo has become the first country in Africa to eliminate human African Trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness, a disease caused by parasites transmitted through infected tsetse flies.

About the disease

• This disease is transmitted by the bite of the tsetse fly, which transfers the protozoan parasite, Trypanosoma brucei, to both humans and cattle. 
• The infection results in fever, headache and joint pains, followed by confusion, poor coordination, numbness and disturbed sleep.
• There are two types of sleeping sickness. The first type occurs due to the Trypanosoma brucei gambiense parasite found in 24 countries in west and central Africa. 
• It caused more than 88 per cent of reported cases of sleeping sickness in 2019, according to updated estimates made available by the WHO.
• The second type is due to the Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense parasite found in 13 countries in eastern and southern Africa. 
• This type accounted for the remaining 12 per cent of reported cases in 2019.

Hence all statements are correct.
