Today is World Malaria Day– “an important reminder that malaria is a major global cause of illness and death, and severely impedes education, equity and economic development” says NHMRC Synergy Grant recipient, Professor James Beeson of Burnet Institute #WorldMalariaDay

Malaria is a disease that disproportionately affects women and children. This #WorldMalariaDay , we're calling for the fight against malaria to be a fair one: to reach #ZeroMalaria we must invest in the leadership and power of women and girls. 🌍🦟

One malaria-carrying mosquito species could put millions more people in Africa at risk for this deadly disease—threatening progress to #EndMalaria . U.S. President's Malaria Initiative (PMI) is helping to lead the global response to this threat: pmi.gov/home/world-mal… #WorldMalariaDay

It's #WorldMalariaDay ! We're honoured to have contributed to global efforts by #innovatingtogether with partners to develop two anti-malaria treatments - ASAQ & ASMQ.

More than half a billion of these treatments have been distributed: dndi.org/research-devel…

#WorldMalariaDay 🦟 is here! We're advocating for Universal Health Coverage, ensuring access to services to prevent, detect and treat malaria for all, regardless of gender, finances, or location. Let's #AccelerateTheFight to #EndMalaria . RBM Partnership

For #WorldMalariaDay 🦟 we want to celebrate three outstanding #WomenInMalaria for the #SketchWiM series, Prof Rose Gana Fomban Leke Rose Gana F.Leke, Prof Francine Ntoumi Ntoumi Francine & Dr Damaris Matoke-Muhia Damaris Matoke image by Sophia Hernandez & Thorey Jonsdottir

Chagas disease, a life-threatening parasitic infection caused by Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), is endemic to the Americas. Yet in the U.S., there are major barriers to an effective public health response to Chagas. #WorldChagasDay asm.social/1Ob

#WorldChagasDay New film!

#Chagas is on the rise in the US. Over 300,000 people have it, but very few have been tested or treated.

🎞️ Watch how a group of scientists and doctors are working to end this neglect in ‘The Kissing Bug Doctors of Florida’. ⬇️

Today is #WorldChagasDay .

But what is #Chagas ? How does it affect millions of lives around the world? And what can be done to improve diagnosis and treatment?

Read on to find out ⬇️ (🧵1/6)

Today is #WorldChagasDay ! Thank you to the scientists, health workers, and communities working to end the neglect of #Chagas .

Join us at the Chagas Platform Meeting on 8-9 May in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷.
