Malaria Vaccine Holds Great Potential


Malaria Vaccine Proves 100% Effective

So in small scale trials, the vaccine developed in Maryland proved 100% effective in preventing Malaria.  Larger trials are necessary for validation, but this is an awesome breakthrough.  The key will be getting it distributed when ready to those most in need of it, namely the poorest people on the outskirts of society and the big cities.  I hope that it will not just be reserved for the wealthier people and it will actually get to those most affected by this disease.
Breakthrough: Trial results published today revealed a vaccine against malaria proved 100 per cent effective against the mosquito-borne disease in subjects given the greatest dose - the first such vaccine in history
