Africa: New Tools Saved a Million Lives From Malaria Last Year but Progress Under Threat As Drug Resistance Rises: [WHO] Wider use of new tools against malaria, including dual-ingredient nets and WHO-recommended vaccines helped to prevent an estimated 170 million cases and 1 million deaths in 2024, according to WHO's annual World malaria report. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TPdyDr #Malaria #GlobalHealth #PublicHealth #Vaccines #Africa
🦟 #Malaria funding is less than half of what @who.int@bsky.brid.gy says is required.
Cuts to surveillance threaten early detection, outbreak response & accurate data.

With the tools we have today, no one should die from #malaria. But cases are rising again. In 2024, 282 million people were infected and 610 000 died, mostly young children in Africa. ⚠️ Drug resistance ⚠️ Conflict ⚠️ Climate shocks ⚠️ Funding gaps are stalling progress to #EndMalaria. 🔗bit.ly/3Y6IcXn
Africa: Malaria - Drug Resistance and Underfunding Threaten Progress Towards Eliminating Killer Disease: [UN News] The authoritative World Health Organization (WHO) World Malaria Report, published on Thursday, shows that resistance to antimalarial drugs now poses one of the most acute risks to control efforts across Africa and beyond. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TPczhS #Malaria #DrugResistance #PublicHealth #WHO #AfricaHealth
Unser November-Einsatzteam (Einsatzbericht HIER) hat es diesmal selbst getroffen: Drei Teammitglieder hatten #Malaria. Weil sie sich die Behandlung leisten konnten, beschränkte sich die Erkrankung auf wenige Tage.
Wenn man aber all diese Möglichkeiten nicht hat, was dann? - Malaria ist in Gambia immer noch die Todesursache Nr. 1 bei Kindern unter 5 Jahren.
Wir haben wieder für 11 Kinder und Jugendliche in Fatou Gayes Klinik die Behandlungskosten übernommen.

I've just listened to a #podcast released two months ago about the roll-out of #malaria #vaccines in Africa.
Please read this article the team wrote. Then please listen to what they produced. Afterwards, please reflect on how far we have come, and what #progress we are making.
This is I believe service to #humanity of the highest order. It transforms progress in the minds of humanity from the 'possible' to the 'inevitable'.
Please #boost for visibility.
Un nuevo estudio revela que el cambio climático ampliará el hábitat de los mosquitos Anopheles en África, exponiendo a millones de personas más a la malaria para finales de siglo.
"Under the new strategy, touted as an ambitious overhaul of the way the US provides health assistance throughout the world, American aid will be funneled through a new system of one-on-one agreements with individual countries, rather than distributed through international aid partners and organizations."

In the good news category:
After years of research and trials, the WHO this year recommended the first new tool to fight #malaria in decades: spatial repellents. They last up to a year and they could help fight malaria as well as dengue and other diseases - and protect refugees.
