So wonderful to spend time w/ DR Dr. Winter Okoth, ScM, PhD. last week. We met in 2017 when we recruited ASTMH members to join United to Beat Malaria for an advocacy day on Cap Hill. Winter became one of our most reliable champs, recently earned her PhD re malaria vax research & is an incredible human.

Our goal of ending malaria is being threatened by climate change.

We must build strong, climate-resilient health systems to tackle the growing threat of malaria and other climate-sensitive infectious diseases.
