Between 2000 and 2019, 10 countries were certified malaria free by WHO. To be certified malaria free a country must have reported at least 3 consecutive years of zero indigenous malaria cases & also demonstrate the capacity to prevent the re-establishment of malaria transmission
World Malaria Day 2021 theme is "Reaching the Zero Malaria Target".
The World Health Organization reports that in 2019, there were an estimated 229 million cases of malaria and 409 000 malaria-related deaths in 87 countries.
Children under the age of 5 years in sub-Saharan Africa continued to account for approximately two thirds of global deaths from malaria. 94% of those cases and deaths were in Africa and 27% of the cases in Africa were from Nigeria.
