Summary

Pathe synopsis: It’s pounds not pop music, science not soccer, that concerns our cameras in Liverpool. At the School of Tropical Medicine, students sweat it out in jungle atmospheres to test reactions of human beings who work in hot climates. Here they perform mini-vampire acts with specially bred mosquitos to discover the mysteries of malaria.
