https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg Malaria is a severe disease that is transmitted to humans by mosquitos. Malaria is no longer common in high-resource countries such as the United States, but in low-resource countries like Sub-Saharan Africa, malaria is very common and people die every day from it. There must be policy reform to help allocate resources to these countries in order to bring malaria deaths and cases down. en-us 2021-10-08 01:42:33 UTC 2023-07-26 04:22:10 UTC hello@padlet.com lilynp https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1801420613 This article discusses the importance of malaria and why we must take action to prevent further cases and deaths. Malaria is preventable and treatable, but is still common in low-resource countries due to lack of resource allocation and failed policies. This article discusses how the malaria problem has been increasing in cases recently as well. ]]> 2021-10-08 02:11:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1801420613 lilynp https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1801439102 This picture shows how malaria is killing children, especially in Africa where it's common and prevalent. Although malaria, is treatable and preventable, places without proper resource allocation leads to multiple outbreaks. ]]> 2021-10-08 02:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1801439102 lilynp https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1801464603 This article discusses the economic and social burden of malaria. It discusses the correlation between malaria and poverty and how malaria also influences population growth and fertility. Countries that have higher poverty rates are more likely to have malaria outbreaks since they do not have the resources to treat and prevent them. We are capable of eradicating Malaria worldwide, but we have to reform public health policy and give what the low-resourced countries need to fight against this disease. ]]> 2021-10-08 02:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1801464603 lilynp https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1803414236 This article goes over the economic burden malaria can put on households financially. Malaria is a fast and easily transmittable disease that can mutate to become resistant to current vaccines that countries may have. For low-resourced countries, they may not have enough to keep up with the new mutated disease and this would lead to outbreaks that are stronger as well. Low-income households would not have the funds to keep up with treating malaria as well. ]]> 2021-10-08 23:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1803414236 lilynp https://padlet.com/lilynp/3exideqxi5tjqrmg/wish/1803420964 This image gives us basic information on malaria, a vector-borne disease.
