‘Safe and effective’: first malaria vaccine to be rolled out in 12 African countries
‘Safe and effective’: first malaria vaccine to be rolled out in 12 African countries
An initial 18m doses will be delivered over the next two years to combat a disease that kills nearly half a million children annually
ahhh, finally a vaccine they can legitimately say Bill Gates wanted to make
On the continent, we are super sceptical of Bill Gates
That's some damn good news
I'm looking forward to the news that malaria is extinct
It probably won't happen in my life time, but the rarer it becomes the better
Hell yeah dude, go science.
Uh...unfun fact, It's estimated that 80% of people to ever exist have died due to Malaria so, fuck mosquitoes, fuck Malaria and fuck yeah science!
Mosquitos are why I will never visit Finland in the summer again! Horrid little fuckheads. Maybe one day we can engineer them to exist without eating humans.
That's great news! One upside of Covid is that it increased funding toward vaccine development strategies. Hopefully we'll get even more effective vaccines for other hard to treat diseases.
This is incredible news! Bravo to the scientists and researchers making it possible.
Great news! Thanks for sharing OP!
When I was in college I had a Zoology professor who mentioned, on multiple occasions, that Malaria had killed '50% of all humans since man's inception".
In fact, on 2 different exams, we had to draw the lifecycle of the genus plasmodium (the thing that causes malaria). Crazy.
Forced car dependency kills more people than malaria. Same with covid (temporarily) and climate change.
I read it as schrodinger’s asshat lol

Some places are moderated, some are not. Depends on the individual community and instance. See sidebar on the right.
I was pondering how corporations within capitalism operate as communist dictatorships internally. I was wondering why it doesn’t bother me as much as a country operating as a communist dictatorship.
And the answer is: you can leave that corporation and go to another one any time.
Whereas countries that become communist dictatorships have to put up walls to keep people from leaving.
So the real horror isn’t the communist dictatorship. It’s the communist dictatorship you can’t leave.
Kinda like bdsm I guess. Consent is everything. “Take everything I produce and redistribute it as you see fit, Daddy!”
This looks to be the safety and efficacy study below, no mention of potential side effects though.
