Where medicines are made impacts who can access them.
Africa is heavily reliant on imports for the medicines needed to fight #malaria.
MMV works with African manufacturers and Africa CDC to strengthen local production and bring medicines closer to patients. bit.ly/4zc2X4m

Echinops hoehnelii, a flowering #plant in the same family as daisies, is used in #Ethiopian folk #medicine to treat #malaria thanks to its high content of chemicals called "acetlylenic thiophenes." Its efficacy has been #scientifically validated in mice models:
Genotypic analysis of Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites in a clinical trial of RTS,S vaccination in combination with seasonal #malaria chemoprevention
Researchers at the University of South Florida @usf.edu identified a vulnerable site that #antibodies can target to block liver-cell invasion - preventing #infection before hypnozoites are established. Important advance vs. one of #malaria’s most difficult parasites. lnkd.in/p/exmyCQ8G
When resources are under pressure, innovation becomes even more important.
Drug and insecticide resistance, climate change and conflict threaten #malaria progress.
New tools can keep us ahead of resistance, simplify care & make the most of limited resources bit.ly/4xCEkwB
