We need to know where malaria cases are if we are to eliminate malaria locally and ultimately eradicate it globally but we need to keep an eye on the things that might threaten our success
Research in India has shown a 5–10 times reduction in malaria-related deaths among communities who use traditional medicinal plants like Guduchi [tinospore coeditdia]
The Global Fund has been a critical funder for country-level ARV (anti-retroviral drugs) programs, HIV/AIDS treatment programs, prevention programs and care programs – not just for HIV, but for TB and malaria as well
Speaking at the ongoing international conference on Monday, the director of Malaria Control Team at the Clinton Foundation, Dr. Oliver Sabot, said the Board of Directors of Global Fund would be meeting in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in about two weeks to decide which countries will benefit from cheaper malari...
