The disease that caused a staggering effect on the human population is (B) Malaria

Malaria:

• Malaria is a potentially lethal disease caused by a parasite that infects a specific type of mosquito that feeds on humans.
• Malaria often causes severe disease, including high fevers, shivering chills, and flu-like symptoms.
• Humans are infected with four types of malaria parasites: Plasmodium falciparum.
• Malaria is not the result of a virus or bacteria.
• A mosquito feeds on Plasmodia that are present in the blood of an afflicted individual.
• Malaria is an acute fever sickness caused by Plasmodium parasites, which are transmitted to humans by the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitos.

Sleeping sickness:

• African Trypanosomiasis, popularly known as "sleeping sickness," is caused by parasites of the Trypanosoma brucei species.
• It is spread by the tsetse fly (Glossina species), which can only be found in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Amoebiasis:

• Amoebiasis, a kind of gastro, is a common cause of diarrhea in visitors to underdeveloped nations.
• Entamoeba histolytica, a parasite that infects the bowel, causes it.
• Young to middle-aged adults are the most typically affected by amoebiasis.
• Handwashing properly helps to prevent the spread of amoebiasis.

Kala-azar​:

• Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), often known as kala-azar, is fatal in more than 95 percent of cases if left untreated.
• It is distinguished by irregular bouts of fever, weight loss, spleen and liver enlargement, and anemia.
• The majority of occurrences occur in Brazil, East Africa, and India.
