Vancouver Sun: Part 3: Fight against malaria a regional challenge
“By rights, Namibia should be malaria free. And it almost is. … Yet Namibia is struggling to get to what’s called the ‘pre-elimination phase’ — a point where health officials can credibly expect to get rid of the disease forever…” (Cayo, 4/22).
