  1. “ The 2021 edition of the report took a closer look at the impact of disruptions to malaria prevention, diagnosis and treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic. The latest data show that the worst-case scenario projected by WHO – a doubling of malaria deaths in sub-Saharan Africa – did not come to pass. However, moderate disruptions to malaria services led to a marked increase in cases and deaths in 2020 over the previous year.”

  2. I guess that’s not all that surprising seeing as numerous precursor plants and other manufacturing facilities for HYDROXYCHLOROQYINE were torched and put outa business….No.?

    MofO’s…

    1. There’s still Apotex, Barry Sherman’s little pride and joy.
      Still cranking it out but not for us Hoi Polloi.

  3. Open speculation – given the demonising of the various quinine based anti malaria drugs for having the audacity to also be effective against ‘you-know-what’, is there any indication that the increase in cases has been due to a reduction in anti-malaria activities?

  4. I find it in poor taste to design the cover of a report containing 69, 000 deaths to resemble festive party balloons and streamers. They sure want to sell it as “good news”.

  5. That’s a 0.3% mortality rate per case. So, are we supposed to lock down Africa now or begin using DDT?
