📌Over 2 billion malaria cases & nearly 13 million deaths prevented since 2000, a testament to global efforts! But funding cuts threaten these milestones and continuous progress.
🛣️The path to zero malaria is uncertain if we allow these funding cuts to stall progress.
@DekunleCharles, CEO of RBM Partnership to End Malaria, emphasizes coordinated action, sustainable financing, and putting countries first to accelerate the fight.
Now more than ever, let's unite for a malaria-free
future.🤝💪

👉🏾 Sagaing Region – located in #Myanmar’s 🇲🇲 north-west and driven with conflict – is among the hardest hit by the 28th March #earthquakes. Villages were flattened. Roads, schools and health services damaged or destroyed.
Amid the destruction, @WHO-supported local health partners continue to deliver essential care to displaced communities.

P. vivax malaria cases numbers have rebounded in the last 2 yrs, putting at risk malaria control and elimination.
Why is evidence for high-dose primaquine for P vivax relapse so clear, especially for regions proceeding towards malaria elimination?
