En 2024, le Cap-Vert et l’Égypte ont été certifiés exempts de paludisme, ce qui prouve qu'il est possible d'éliminer la maladie avec une volonté politique et des ressources adaptées. Cependant, en Afrique, où se concentrent 95 % des cas mondiaux et 97 % des décès (en 2023), les progrès ...stagnent et l’objectif d’élimination d’ici 2030 est menacé. Les principaux obstacles sont le déficit de financement, la résistance aux insecticides et aux médicaments, l'expansion du moustique Anopheles stephensi, le changement climatique, les crises humanitaires et la croissance démographique. Pour inverser la tendance, l’Afrique doit accélérer le déploiement de nouveaux outils (moustiquaires de nouvelle génération, vaccins), renforcer la mobilisation des ressources nationales et diversifier les financements. Une feuille de route de l’Union africaine vise à transformer ces engagements en actions concrètes pour éliminer le paludisme et ses conséquences sanitaires et économiques.

Under-five children accounted for 67 per cent of all malaria deaths worldwide in 2018. Most of them occurred in sub-Saharan Africa where an estimated 24 million children were infected with its deadliest form. In addition to being the t...hird-deadliest infectious disease for children, malaria infection and the costs of treatment traps families in a cycle of illness, suffering and poverty.This year’s World Malaria Day is marred by the emergence of the COVID-19 outbreak, which further threatens people’s lives and well-being. Public health officials are taking precautionary and often aggressive measures to limit transmission of this virus, including reductions in social movement, physical distancing, hand-washing and recommending the use of personal protection equipment in high-risk settings. However, while focusing on combating this disease, the world cannot afford to ignore other diseases, such as malaria.

It prevents and relieves suffering through the early identification, correct assessment and treatment of pain and ot...her problems, whether physical, psychosocial or spiritual.
Addressing suffering involves taking care of issues beyond physical symptoms. Palliative care uses a team approach to support patients and their caregivers. This includes addressing practical needs and providing bereavement counselling. It offers a support system to help patients live as actively as possible until death.

Attempts in the past have achieved little success. The formulation of Ghana´s NCD policy in 2014 and the accompanying strategic plan is one such effort.

It was th...e leading cause of end-stage kidney disease, adult-onset blindness and cardiovascular diseases. Further, there was a considerable heterogeneity in the prevalence of complications and deaths associated with diabetes across the countries.

В этом руководстве описаны первоочередные шаги и действия по основным направлениям обеспечения готовности и мер реагирования в области общественного здравоохранения, которые должны быть включены в планы стран по обеспечению готовности и реагирования. Эти рекомендации соответствуют ранее опубликованному Стратегическому плану по обеспечению готовности и реагирования на COVID-19 (СПГР). К концу этого курса назначенные ведущие специалисты СГООН по планированию и соответствующие партнеры должны уметь оценивать и устранять пробелы в потенциале реагирования на вспышку COVID-19.

                                                                Malaria ist nach wie vor eine lebensbedrohliche Krankheit, insbesondere in Afrika. Jährlich gibt es rund 228 Millionen Fälle mit hohen Sterberaten, vor allem bei Kindern unter fünf Jahren. Drei Absolvent:innen des Masterstudiengangs „Applied Information and Data Science“ entwickeln die Smartp...hone-App „Malatec“, die eine schnelle und kostengünstige Malaria-Diagnose ermöglichen soll. Die Diagnose erfolgt mithilfe eines preiswerten, 3D-gedruckten Mikroskops (unter 5 CHF) in Kombination mit einem Algorithmus, der auf neuronalen Netzen basiert und die Malaria-Parasiten in gefärbten Blutproben automatisch erkennt und zählt.

The TACT ("Targeting ACTs") initiative aims to ensure that artemisinin-based combination therapies... (ACTs) are used appropriately, treating only confirmed malaria cases and guiding alternative care for other febrile illnesses.
