Malaria

Malaria causes more than one million deaths, mostly in sub-Saharan African infants and children, and an estimated 300 million to 500 million cases every year. Malaria can be controlled through the use of medicines, insecticides, and insecticide-treated screens and bednets, and malaria can be treated with antimalarial drugs. Currently, there is no licensed vaccine against malaria; however, several vaccines are under development.
