World Malaria Day

#WorldMalariaDay is April 25: Trying to get everyone on Twitter to retweet this tweet

[The Global Fund @GlobalFund]

Malaria has shown that we must stay ahead of it to eliminate it. To #EndMalaria as an epidemic and fight emerging threats like #COVID19 we need to strengthen the systems for health that are critical to fighting both. #WorldMalariaDay #UniteToFight

[PETER OBI PRAYER FORUM @IbekweGodwin]

Malaria is preventable & treatable, No one deserves to die of Malaria.
Today is World Malaria Day 2020.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Something worth celebrating this #WorldMalariaDay: Global efforts to end malaria have saved nearly 600,000 lives and prevented almost 100 million cases each year compared to 2000 levels. Many of the most vulnerable are children & pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa. #endmalaria

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

The Nobel Prize has been awarded to at least 6 discoveries related to malaria.

The latest was to Tu Youyou who discovered artemisinin, a substance which inhibits the malaria parasite. She tested the medicine on herself: it now saves countless lives every year.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

As we work on tackling #COVID19, we can't afford to lose ground on the gains we have made against other diseases like malaria.

On #WorldMalariaDay I join @WHO's call for maintained malaria prevention & treatment services during the #coronavirus crisis to save lives.

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

Today is #WorldMalariaDay

#Malaria still kills a child every two minutes. No children should die because they cannot access life-saving services to prevent, detect & treat the disease.

Zero malaria starts with me – are you ready to #EndMalaria?

Critical that we focus on equity in our response to all infectious diseases. There are huge disparities in access to basic needs both within and between countries.

[RBM Partnership @endmalaria]

I'm joining the Twitter cheer to celebrate amazing health workers around the world continuing to save lives under the pressure of a global health crisis. 👏👏🏻👏🏽👏🏿 Join us and call on leaders to fund our health systems and protect our #HealthHeroes this #WorldMalariaDay

[RBM Partnership @endmalaria]

[Ray Chambers @RaymondChambers]

We must unite as one global community to combat our common enemies—the pathogens that threaten our health and prosperity. My Statement on #WorldMalariaDay 2020 #endmalaria https://t.co/tR9r7pfmce

#ChaseMalariatoZero @worldmalariaday Commemorating the World Malaria Day today - let’s not give Malaria a chance in our homes. Take action by sleeping under mosquito nets @MinofHealthUG @JaneRuth_Aceng @SamsonKasumba @SolomonSerwanjj @opigojimmy

[Michael Wimberly @mcwimberly]

Even in these #COVID times we can't let up the fight against all the other diseases that threaten global health, including #malaria. Happy @worldmalariaday!

[Gaia Trincucci @Gaia_JExpMed]

📢It’s #WorldMalariaDay

Looking back to 2019 - Masahiro Yamamoto & colleagues
investigated the liver stage of Plasmodium and found that CXCR4 helped sporozoite differentiation into EEFs.

[Dr Roopa @DrRoopa7]

India has made substantial progress in reducing Malaria burden, however, let us not lose focus and remain committed to the cause so that gains achieved so painstakingly are not squandered. @Worldmalariaday

[Malaria No More @MalariaNoMore]

In most parts of the world, a child who gets #malaria has a better chance of survival than at any other point in history. We can be the generation to #endmalaria. In the face of COVID-19, we must act now to save lives. #WorldMalariaDay #ZeroMalariaStartsWithMe

[Azra Ghani @azraghani]

1/ Today is #WorldMalariaDay. Every year, 400k children die from a preventable disease. Right now malaria-endemic countries are rightly focused on the threat from #COVID19. But it is important that our community remembers the ever-present threat from diseases such as malaria.

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

"I cannot help remembering the dingy little military hospital, the old cracked microscope, and the medicine bottles which constituted all the laboratory and apparatus which I possessed..."

Ronald Ross was awarded the #NobelPrize for his work on malaria.

#WorldMalariaDay

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

On #WorldMalariaDay, we reiterate our commitment to #EndMalaria, a killer disease that takes a child's life every 2 minutes. Let's unite to combat this disease by making sure that life-saving services are available for all to prevent, detect and treat #malaria.
