Yet while these numbers increase, 鈥攁nd even decreased in areas. Notably, the total spending to eradicate malaria in 2022 was  needed to stay on track to reduce new malaria infections and mortality rates by 90% by 2030.

In a new policy brief, Malaria and Most Vulnerable Populations, the 乐鱼 体育鈥檚 Maternal Health Initiative looks at the current state of malaria globally. We assess the devastating effects of malaria on maternal, newborn, and child health outcomes, survey improved prevention methods and treatments, and underscore the role of community health workers and global health diplomacy in the fight against malaria. We also provide recommendations to help prioritize malaria eradication in a time of increased prevalence and decreased global attention.
