Just like with #malaria, "climate change and rapid urbanization are causing [dengue] to spread further and faster."

"Belize’s 🇧🇿 success has hinged on strong surveillance for #malaria, access to #diagnosis, and effective vector control methods including [ITNs] and indoor spraying of insecticides. Trained community #healthworkers have played a vital role in timely diagnosis and treatment."

"#Malaria is most common in warm climates... It is possible that weather conditions in the southern United States have become more conducive to malaria transmission."

"The delay in the drug’s rollout seems attributable in part to the lack of much commercial incentive to develop better malaria treatments."

We’re excited to announce that 12 countries in Africa will be allocated a total of 18 million doses of the world’s first #malaria vaccine over the next two years with Gavi support! bit.ly/44bLvOA World Health Organization (WHO) UNICEF GSK Unitaid The Global Fund MedAccess @PATHTweets USAID Global Health

"It is essential to understand the intersectoral nature of #malaria and the synergy between actions of various sectors to ensure the formulation of an informed and context-specific multisectoral and multistakeholder engagement." 🔽

"Warmer winters and milder autumns and springs allow carriers of pathogens — ticks, mosquitos 🦟, and fleas, for example — to remain active for longer swaths of the year." Brilliant visualizations on climate & health from The Associated Press 🔽

"One of the main challenges to #malaria control is staying ahead of mosquito 🦟 evolution and growing insecticide resistance... The R&D activities include identifying new active ingredients and novel insecticide processes, including control releases."
