An insecticide paint used on houses in Cabo Verde, Africa, was able to control and reduce the local populations of mosquitoes that transmit yellow fever, malaria, Zika…

A recent paper demonstrates that in regions with high malaria prevalence, repeated malaria infections lead to the broadening of antibody diversity and continued presence of atypical memory B cell populations.

A study involving over 11,500 children suggests that forests can offer natural protection against malaria transmission, especially for the most vulnerable children, while deforestation exacerbates the risk of the disease
