...If this tablet is approved in coming years..... It will save millions upon millions of lives on the continent, helping avoid at least 24 percent of child deaths in sub-Saharan Africa.

I am certain that if this drug proves out, some reason will still be found to ban it.

If true the economic benefits to malaria plagued countries would be incalculable.

Prevention is, however, still much better than cure

Sadly true that.

Lost millions of humans by banning DDT, but at least we saved the condors.

Without reading all posts..

It’s called DDT!!!!! “SILENT SPRING,” published on September 27, 1962, and the lunatics that followed those fellow lunatics Rachel Carson and Houghton Mifflin in banning use of DDT, may have caused more death in that region than tribal conflict (PFB, need to verify). In any event, bars, quinine, and meds are great, but killing the ubiquitous pest is the surest way to knock back the disease.

ruefully
