For example, when anthropologist Robert Welsch contracted malaria while doing some field work among the Ningerum people of Papua New Guinea, the villagers want to take him to the health center that was miles away. Even though he tried the American way of dealing with the sickness, by taking fluids and medicines, seclusion and lots of rest, the villagers, as is their custom, did not let him be alone. Instead, they have a completely different perception of their sicknesses. They believed that illnesses are caused by sorcery, and so they tried to comfort Welsch and stay with him for long hours.
