World Malaria Day 2024: On 25 April, World Malaria Day 2024 will be marked under the theme “Accelerating the fight against malaria for a more equitable world”
who.int/campaigns/world-malaria-day/2024
Quick Glance: Combatting Malaria: Challenges and Solutions
- Progress in reducing malaria has stalled in recent years, especially in African regions. Pregnant women, young children, and other vulnerable groups continue to have limited access to malaria services.
- Infants and young children are disproportionately affected by malaria, especially in poorer households in sub-Saharan Africa. Pregnant women are at increased risk of malaria due to immunity loss.
- Refugees, migrants, and indigenous peoples are also at higher risk of malaria and often lack access to necessary services.
- Climate change and humanitarian emergencies contribute to making vulnerable populations more susceptible to malaria. Measures like combating discrimination and integrating malaria control interventions into universal health coverage can help achieve a malaria-free world.

Quick Glance: Dengue and Severe Dengue Fever
- Dengue, also known as break-bone fever, is a viral infection that spreads from mosquitoes to people and is more common in tropical and subtropical climates.
- Symptoms of Dengue are often mild or absent, but can also include high fever, headache, body aches, nausea, and rash. In cases of severe progression, Dengue can pose a significant risk.
- Treatment for Dengue mainly involves pain medication as there is no specific therapy available. Preventing mosquito bites is crucial to avoid Dengue infections.
- The global incidence of Dengue has significantly increased, affecting over 100 countries with the Americas, Southeast Asia, and the Western Pacific regions being the most impacted areas.

Quick Glance: CDC warns of looming measles outbreak in the US
- A report from the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates a significant decline in measles immunization since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, resulting in a record high of almost 40 million children missing a vaccine dose last year.
- With the increase in cases that could jeopardize the virus's eliminated status in the U.S., the CDC is calling for measures to boost measles immunization.
- So far, 113 measles cases have been confirmed since 2020, compared to 58 cases detected last year. The majority of measles patients since 2020 have not been vaccinated or had an unknown vaccination status.
- Experts express concerns that the rise in measles cases in the U.S. may signal a troubling trend. The CDC emphasizes the need to increase routine MMR vaccination coverage to maintain elimination.
