Malaria

Malaria was the most common of the infectious dis­eases in Korea, where it almost always appeared as the “3-day fever” and where knowledge about it de­veloped relatively early. The relief methods in the Hyangyak chipsong pang are based on a combination of Chinese remedies and those in the Hyang-yak kugup pang.
