Hantaviruses are zoonotic viruses that naturally infect rodents and can occasionally spread to people.

Here’s what you need to know about #hantavirus: What they are, how they spread, the symptoms, and how to prevent infection

[Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research @NMIMR_UG]

@nmimr_ug experts are setting the record straight.

Professor Linda Eva Amoah emphasized an important message: not every fever is malaria.

Getting tested before treatment isn’t just important — it’s life-saving.

Malaria is resurging — and Africa is bearing the brunt.

In 2023, there were an estimated 263 million new malaria cases globally and nearly 597,000 deaths, with Africa accounting for the vast majority of that burden.

We are also witnessing new outbreaks in parts of Southern Africa..

@AfricaCDC calls for urgent action to:

✅Strengthen surveillance and genomic research
✅Ensure equitable rollout of malaria vaccines
✅Invest in proven prevention tools
✅Secure sustainable, Africa-led financing.

In the @bmj_latest piece, we outline a critical roadmap: Africa must reclaim the fight against malaria by reinforcing surveillance, advancing vaccine equity, scaling prevention, and boosting domestic investment.
