Changing the Rules of Medical Research

May 1, 2008

 

In 2006, MSF treated more than 1.7 million people for malaria. Every year, malaria kills nearly 2 million people and infects 400 to 500 million, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Ninety percent of these deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa, but the disease is present in more than 100 countries and in nearly every tropical area where MSF has field programs, from Sierra Leone to Cambodia to Myanmar.
