    I should really fish out my haematology notes. But a synopsis is the parasite generates proteins that affect the red cell membrane, changing its shape and making it more sticky and less inclined to be removed by the spleen.
    Interesting to see it happening so fast.

    Any links of it in HD?! Great video, must have taken a long time to catch it happening.
