The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that a new malaria vaccine has led to a significant reduction in severe malaria and child deaths. The vaccine, known as RTS,S, has been administered to over 1.6 million children in Ghana, Kenya, and Malawi, and has been deemed safe and effective. Despite this progress, the WHO emphasizes the importance of remembering that a child dies from malaria almost every minute. The article also mentions that previous UN studies have linked climate change to the increase in mosquitoes carrying malaria-like diseases.
