Hi John, For us, the buzz is all about the big game this weekend. But for millions, a mosquito bite can have deadly consequences. Every day, more than 1,000 children under five die from malaria. It doesn’t have to be this way. We have the tools - including indoor residual spraying and insecticide-treated bed nets - to stop it. And now, we have vaccines. A few weeks ago, Cameroon became the first country to roll out one of two new malaria vaccines to children as part of their routine immunization programs. About 94% of malaria cases and 95% of malaria deaths globally occur in the WHO African region, so this has the potential to save millions of lives. The vaccine will continue to be rolled out throughout the year. Before the game kicks off, can you sign our petition asking President Biden to make sure the new malaria vaccines are accessible and affordable to the people who need it most? Thanks! Kelli Meyer, ONE |
