THE MALARIA VACCINE GOT APPROVED BY THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION TODAY OH MY GOD THIS IS LITERALLY ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF RESEARCH.
*THIS* IS WHAT BEING HUMAN IS ABOUT.
Oh my god, this is so cool. It was approved Oct 6th, 2021 because dates aren't easy to find on this site.
Not only is it the first malaria vaccine, it is the first vaccine ever for use against a parasitic infection. (The name is also kinda amazing: Mosquirix.)
It's effectiveness is middling. Only 30-40%. And it looks like hospitalizations are decreased by 1/3.
Apparently it has been approved in Europe since 2015, but the WHO was waiting for further testing. Looks like it is approved for kids, who are disproportionately affected by Malaria.
Downside - 3-4 dose series shot given over the first 2 years of life. This makes it expensive and difficult for families without easy access to health care.
It looks like PATH and UNICEF are the two main groups working with the WHO and GSK (the manufacturer) to distribute the vaccine (so those would be the groups to donate to if anyone is capable and so inclined). The Google searches I conducted didn't find any formal plans for distribution at this time. Looks like there'll be a waiting list and evaluation of needs and large scale distribution isn't expected to happen for another year or so.
