You are on holiday with your friends. But while they walk around unscathed, you are covered in dozens of itchy bites. Why do some people seem to attract mosquitos more than others? Is it bad luck? Or is there a scientific reason? This video from TED-Ed searches for answers.
The Day is an independent, online, subscription-based news publication for schools, focussing on the big global issues beneath the headlines.
