Who Guidelines for malaria

ABSTRACT

Malaria continues to cause unacceptably high levels of disease and death, as documented in successive editions of the World malaria report [3]. According to the latest report, there were an estimated 247 million cases and 619 000 deaths globally in 2021. Malaria is preventable and treatable, and the global priority is to reduce the burden of disease and death while retaining the long-term vision of malaria eradication. Here, we present the WHO Guidelines for malaria developed by the WHO Global Malaria Programme as a comprehensive and inclusive resource for advice on malaria.
