Africa to benefit from malaria vaccine

   I wrote about a new drug which might stop malaria but while we await the drug, we can start jubilating because a new malaria vaccine is coming to Africa to save Children in Africa.

The world's first malaria vaccine would soon be approved for use in Africa.

After some scientific research, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has said that the new malaria vaccine is safe and effective.

The target population for the vaccine are kids under the age of 5 in Africa.

Dr Fatoumata Nafo-Traore, executive director of the "Roll Back Malaria Partnership" said The vaccine will not stop malaria, but will add onto the benefits of other prevention measures, this is good as it will assist the children to fight malaria better.

Over 100,000 thousand children die of malaria yearly in Africa and majority of them are under five years.
