ROI of Malaria Vaccine in Sub-Saharan Africa
Malaria remains a significant global health concern, with over 200
million estimated malaria cases reported worldwide in 2021, and 95
percent of these cases occurring in the World Health Organization (WHO)
African Region.
In the August issue of Health Affairs,
<[link removed]>
Joshua Mak and his colleagues at Johns Hopkins University calculate the
return on investment (ROI) for the introduction and continuation of a
four-dose malaria vaccine from 2021-30 in twenty sub-Saharan African
countries.
After using the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute's model, they
estimate a base ROI of 0.42, estimating that the malaria vaccine would
avert $4.04 billion in cost of illness between 2021-30. After using
the Imperial College London Model, they estimate a base ROI of 2.3 and
$9.41 billion in cost of illness averted.
Both calculations indicate that the introduction and implementation of
the malaria vaccine has resulted in a positive ROI.
