Malaria Spotlight

The massive scale-up of malaria interventions since 2001 has helped to save an estimated 7 million lives, according to the World Malaria Report 2018. But an estimated 3.2 billion people, almost half the world’s population across 91 countries or territories, are still at risk of malaria. Malaria was responsible for 435,000 deaths in 2017, mostly among children under 5 years of age in sub-Saharan Africa, and in the same year malaria caused 219 million people to become ill. However, there is progress: In 2017, 46 countries reported fewer than 10,000 cases of malaria, and the number of countries with fewer than 100 cases increased from 15 countries in 2010 to 26 countries in 2017.
