Reasons for the increase include the COVID-19 pandemic, population growth, climate change, conflict, drug and insecticide resistance, and lack of funding.

Malaria cases will increase by 11 million in 2023, reaching 263 million saying the disease remains a major threat to children and pregnant women in Africa. Reuters reported this on Wednesday, December 11.

There will be about 11 million more cases of malaria in 2023 compared to 2022, according to a new report from the World Health Organization.

According to the WHO, 597,000 deaths were recorded in 2022, the majority of African children under 5 years of age.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stressed that no one should die of malaria, but the disease continues to threaten the lives of young Africans and pregnant women.

According to the WHO, a significant decrease in the incidence rate was recorded from 2000 to 2015, but the progress has now stopped.

By 2023, only $4 billion has been allocated to fight malaria, while the need is $8.3 billion.

The World Health Organization has declared the outbreak of monkeypox in Africa a “health emergency of international concern.”

Earlier it was reported that malaria was discovered in a foreign student at one of the Kharkov universities.
