Nature research paper: Projected impacts of climate change on malaria in Africa

https://t.co/yVRHTmHgdd

[IVCC @invectorcontrol]

First in a series on the @MalariaAtlas report with author Dr Symons: The changing impact of malaria control in Africa 2000-2025. Malaria control tools prevented 1.5B+ cases in Africa since 2000, with ITNs and IRS accounting for 1.2B.

Vector control remains at the heart of malaria progress.

New @MalariaAtlas data show 1.22 billion cases and 3.5 million deaths have been prevented across Africa since 2000. A reminder of what sustained innovation can achieve. ✨

This study creates and makes publicly available a geolocated dataset of historical timeseries describing malaria seasonality published since 2000 for sub-Saharan Africa🔗 https://t.co/U0ZBlK00CF

"The Article by Symons (...) sounds a crucial alarm: drastic funding cuts are both disruptive and deadly (...) with strategic vision and political will, Africa has an opportunity to emerge stronger"

[The Lancet @TheLancet]

Over the last two decades, the US President's Malaria Initiative (PMI) has played a major role in malaria control in Africa.

At a time of ongoing malaria policy reorientation, a new study quantified the impact that a fully functioning PMI would have on malaria cases & deaths in Africa during 2025.

Los efectos de la suspensión de #USAID: el programa estrella contra la malaria en África, que evita 100.000 muertes al año y 13 millones de nuevos casos, pende de un hilo

MAP is proud to share our new paper in @TheLancet. At full strength, we estimated that PMI could prevent nearly 14 million malaria cases and save more than 100,000 lives in Africa this year.

[Zero Malaria @ZeroMalaria]

It’s time to change the story. Malaria hits children hardest, yet their voices go unheard. Today it is time for world leaders to listen. It's time for them to act before more children are put at risk. Let's invest in the @GlobalFund and in our children's futures #ZeroMalaria 🌍

[Malaria No More UK @malarianomoreuk]

.@Gavi has protected over 1B kids against disease since 2000. If leaders — like @Keir_Starmer @EmmanuelMacron @jonasgahrstore @JustinTrudeau & @SwedishPM — commit the $9B Gavi needs, it will be on track to protect 1B more in half the time. #ForOurFuture https://t.co/tS9y0AlDkZ

[Gates Foundation Africa @GatesAfrica]

New data suggests extreme weather could result in 550K additional malaria deaths in Africa by 2050, making it more important than ever to commit to eradication.

Strong commitments from African leaders and increased global investment are vital to #EndMalaria.

Congratulations to all MAPpers for their key contributions. Find estimates of P.falciparum parasite #prevalence and case #incidence, effective treatment, ITN and IRS #coverage for sub-saharan Africa.

[RBM Partnership @endmalaria]

New modelling prepared by @MalariaAtlas for @endmalaria and @ALMA_2030 announced at #UNGA79

If funding for malaria falls at the next @GlobalFund replenishment in 2025, we could see 337,000 more deaths between 2027 and 2029.

Leaders must prioritize malaria funding to #EndMalaria. It's #OurOnlyChoice.

Honoured to host @Science_Academy President Professor Jagadish at @telethonkids where he met with Executive Director @jcarapetis and senior researchers to discuss our work in cancer, precision health, and malaria mapping. It was great to explore how our collaborative efforts can contribute to scientific excellence in #Australia.
