What we learnt from the DRC’s malaria outbreak

Summary

Nutrition label

76% Informative

Malaria kills approximately 600,000 people annually around the world, with 12 per cent of those deaths occurring in DRC .

Malaria is a disease with known therapeutics and vaccines, but these have not been readily available to those infected, highlighting systemic gaps that endanger not only the DRC but global health security.

The world must act swiftly, not only to address this immediate crisis but to strengthen health systems to prevent future outbreaks.

In our interconnected world, localised outbreaks can quickly escalate into global crises, as demonstrated by Covid-19.

Investing in diagnostics, surveillance, data-sharing systems, and preparedness frameworks strengthens health systems to prevent, contain, and mitigate outbreaks.

The experience in DRC highlights the need for equitable health interventions.
