Despite decades of progress, we are not on track to defeat malaria in Africa. Without more resolve, innovation, financing, and […] Continue reading -> Global Fund: Declines in Malaria, HIV and TB Deaths Threatened by Donor Aid Cutbacks, Climate and Conflict 12/09/2025 Elaine Ruth Fletcher While deaths from malaria have fallen by 29% since over the past two decades, mortality could rise again this year due to the cuts in global health funding seen recently, says Peter Sands, executive director of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. “There has been a significant impact…and I suspect that we […] Continue reading -> ‘Critical Lack’ of Antifungal Treatments and Growing Drug Resistance 01/04/2025 Kerry Cullinan There is a “critical lack” of medicines and diagnostic tools for invasive fungal diseases, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), which released its first analysis of antifungals on Tuesday.
