What Nigeria must do to eradicate malaria

3 min read If Nigeria is to eradicate malaria and save millions of people from dying from the disease, there is an urgent need to invest in quality Long Lasting Insecticides Nets (LLIN). This was the consensus on Wednesday during a virtual panel discussion involving experts, partners and stakeholders to address existing gaps in eliminating malaria, a life-threatening disease. Tagged “optimising vector control interventions towards malaria elimination in Nigeria,” the programme was organised by the Corporate Alliance on Malaria in Africa (CAMA) in collaboration with the National Malaria Elimination Programme (NMEP) and global health company, Vestergaard. One of the panellist and head of global growth at Vestergaard, Patrick Sieyes, said the cornerstone of malaria prevention is essentially vector control in the form of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS).

CAMA Dialogue Series: Partnerships to Step Up Investment in Malaria

Ian Matthews The Corporate Alliance on Malaria in Africa (CAMA) and partners are hosting a three-part dialogue series between March and May 2021 to mobilize the private sector, government and key stakeholders in the global health community towards continued commitment and increased investment in malaria elimination.  Despite the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries around the world have held the line by working to protect recent historic gains against malaria, thereby saving hundreds of thousands of lives.  Long-term success in reaching a malaria-free world within a generation is far from assured, however. A coordinated, intentional, and focused effort is urgently required. The private sector has a critical role to play through raising awareness within workforces and communities, as well as by investing in efforts to end malaria.
