A new study reported in Nature magazine on malaria shows that the number of cases worldwide may be almost double the number the World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated. In 1998 WHO estimated that there were 273 million cases of malaria. Based on this new scientific study the figures may be closer to 515 million. That’s a huge difference.
Once again the best way to prevent and treat malaria is to use DDT. Yet that is still very politically incorrect and rather than save lives health groups and governments prefer to use drugs and other “safe” alternatives. Nero fiddled while Rome burned, Anti- DDT activists are now fiddling while millions die.
