On World Malaria Day (April 25), “we reinvirt, reinvirt and revive so that malaria ends with us,” says the World Health Organization (WHO).
The base campaign aims to reer the efforts, from global politics to community action, accelerate progress towards the elimination of malaria.
The global community compromised malaria in the 1990s and, as a result, approximately 2.2 billion and 12.7 million deaths in more than two decades have been planned. But after years of constant decreases, progress has stagnated. Today, it is estimated that malaria claims a life every minute, and most deaths occur in the African region of WHO, he said.
More progress and decades of hard and won gains are in danger. Extreme climatic events, conflict, humanitarian emergencies and economic stress are interrupting malaria control efforts in many endemic countries, leaving dozens of millions of people with limited access to the services they need to prevent. Without rapid treatment, malaria can quickly increase to serious disease and death.
“We must reinvest in proven interventions, reinvent our strategies to overcome current obstacles and revive our collective efforts together with countries and communities to accelerate the trailers of progress that end malaria,” said WHO.
