1) Last year, we received a great donation by @BSPparasitology, and once again we thank you for your support. However, in Venezuela supplies are limited, even more in COVID time, and our labs still need any kind of help to continue with our activities.

@AAcostaserrano's #Research team at the @LSTMnews is working to reduce mosquito populations using #Nitisinone!

Doing so is an essential part of controlling #Malaria and other diseases spread by blood-feeding insects and ticks.

Today is World Malaria Day. A disease that in 2020 took 627k lives.
A reminder of the need for vector control plans (mosquitoes of the Anopheles genus), as well as prevention and treatment of the disease, caused by microorganisms (Protozoa) from Plasmodium genus.
