WHO recommends broad use of the first malaria vaccine (RTS,S) among children living in #malaria endemic areas with moderate to high transmission. The life-saving vaccine has been shown to have high impact in real-life use - to significantly βοΈ severe malaria, & βοΈ child deaths.
Every minute β° 1 child π¦πΎ dies from mosquito-borne #malaria.

The RTS,S vaccine has the potential to save tens of thousands of lives if rolled out widely.
