Everyone has the right to quality, timely, and affordable services to prevent, detect and treat #malaria, yet this is not a reality for all.
On #WorldMalariaDay, @WHO and partners call on all countries to accelerate the fight against malaria for a more equitable world through:
-Ending discrimination and stigma
-Engaging communities in health decision-making
-Bringing health care close to where people live and work through primary health care
-Addressing factors that increase malaria risk
-Including malaria control interventions in universal health coverage
#EndMalaria

Five years ago I attended MPM, heard an inspiring talk from @Bushell_Lab and wrote down her name in my notebook. This year I came to #MPM2023 as part of her lab! What a journey! And what an amazing conference, bringing molecular parasitologists together!
