Ivermectin and its Byproducts Can Take Down Malaria Mosquitoes/
~~
Ivermectin, drug commonly used for humans and animals, is being studied as a potential tool to eliminate malaria by targeting the mosquitoes that spread the disease (The #BOHEMIAproject is one example). It was

Throwbacks with this team as we recently worked on a short film on malaria eradication, documenting the work of ISGlobal in Kwale County (Kenya), titled #BOHEMIAProject .

Go watch, you'll understand better.
