No be every fever be malaria. ‘E get as body dey do me’ no be Malaria! ‘My urine dey hot and yellow’ NK be Malaria. If you no test am e fit no be Malaria.
Treating malaria without testing can be dangerous. It can lead to drug resistance and other complications. Ensure you get tested before you start any malaria treatment. #healthcare #children #nutrition #ngo #malariamustgo #malariamustdie #bbnaija #westfielddevelopment

Prevention is the cornerstone of all malaria control efforts and therefore the collaborative effort must continue to ensure that this disease which claims so many lives is eliminated.

On a scale of 1-10, how easy do you think it will be for mosquitoes to breed in this environment? #QuestionOfTheDay #WDI

Sleeping under an insecticide-treated net is the most widely adopted preventive measure against malaria. Insecticide-treated mosquito nets are effective because the female mosquito that transmits malaria only bites at night. #preventmalaria #malaria

Stagnant water is the number one breeding spot for mosquitoes. Mosquitoes breed by laying eggs in stagnant water and the best way to prevent malaria is to keep the mosquitoes from breeding by keeping gutters clear and draining every stagnant pool of water. #Health #PreventMalaria

Mosquitoes cause 750,000 deaths a year and more than half of all mosquito-related deaths can be attributed to malaria, and most of these cases originate in sub-Saharan Africa. #Mondaythoughts #Facts #MosquitoFacts #Trending

In malaria-endemic areas, infants once again become vulnerable to malaria at approximately 3 months of age, when immunity acquired from the mother starts to wane. It is important to know that prevention is better than cure. Don't wait till they have malaria, prevent it.
