Achieving Malaria elimination is possible 2024 World Malaria Day: Health Equity,the cornerstone for achieving malaria elimination in Ghana

Malaria is a major public health crisis in Nigeria, significantly affecting mortality and morbidity, particularly among children and pregnant women. The country represents a large portion of the global malaria burden, which is compounded by numerous challenges that hinder the control and elimination of the disease. As we observe World Malaria Day 2024, it's emphasized that eradicating malaria is not only a vital goal but a duty. The eradication efforts are not just about saving lives, they also aim to reduce poverty, enhance maternal and child health, and promote greater global stability. With sufficient commitment and resources, our generation has the power to end malaria. #worldmalariaday #malaria #Publichealth "My Health, My Right"

"The fight against malaria is not just a health issue but a call to action for everyone," says the Kenya Malaria Youth Corps. To mark #InternationalYouthDay the team of #malariachampions will on August 10 "Pedal Against Malaria". The aim? To highlight the urgent need to accelerate the fight against #malaria, a disease that continues to burden the country and others across #Africa.

Do you know what the most dangerous creature in the world is? 🦟In honor of World Malaria Day last month, my @Chemonics colleagues at the @USAID-funded Global Health Supply Chain Program-Technical Assistance (GHSC-TA) Francophone Task Order hosted a webinar titled "Working Together Towards Zero Malaria: A Panel on Progress and Innovations in the Democratic Republic of Congo" to share lessons learned on #LocallyLed improvements to the health #SupplyChain. Watch the recording to learn more about the joint work of @USAID/Democratic Republic of the Congo and @PMIgov is supporting in DRC, where the burden of malaria is highest, so no one dies from a mosquito bite: https://ow.ly/qoBU30sCCKI #WorldMalariaDay

This World Malaria Day, let's recommit to achieving health equity in the fight against malaria. The disease is a leading cause of illness and death in Ghana especially among children under 5 years. There are proven effective tools and interventions to prevent and control malaria; these include: 📍 Vector control interventions such as insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs), Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS), Larval Source Management (LSM) etc. 📍Seeking care timely and at an appropriate health facility when you experience a fever. 📍Testing for malaria, and treatment only when one tests positive. 📍Complete adherence to the recommended antimalarial treatment and follow-up visit for retesting to ensure cure. Together, let's accelerate the fight for a malaria-free world! #EndMalaria #Health #Equity #HumanRights #Nyaho

Malaria rapid test distribution in sub-Saharan Africa increases testing, antimalarial use, and modestly improves child survival, especially in high-prevalence settings. https://ja.ma/4e8iJ5L

We worked with USAID and local officials in Cameroon and nine other countries to implement and track Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention (SMC), a five-year program designed to diminish seasonal malaria in children under five years old. Here's how we did it. https://okt.to/qQc7st
