africanews.com/2024/04/25/climate-change-is-bringing-malaria-to-new-areas/

Quick Glance: Combatting Malaria: Challenges and Solutions

Progress in reducing malaria has stalled in recent years, especially in African regions. Pregnant women, young children, and other vulnerable groups continue to have limited access to malaria services.

Infants and young children are disproportionately affected by malaria, especially in poorer households in sub-Saharan Africa. Pregnant women are at increased risk of malaria due to immunity loss.

Refugees, migrants, and indigenous peoples are also at higher risk of malaria and often lack access to necessary services.

Climate change and humanitarian emergencies contribute to making vulnerable populations more susceptible to malaria. Measures like combating discrimination and integrating malaria control interventions into universal health coverage can help achieve a malaria-free world.

Quick Glance: Investigation of Key Bridge Incident

The FBI has initiated a criminal investigation focusing on the colossal container vessel that caused the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore last month.

Authorities are examining the sequence of events that led to the Dali, a 985-foot Singaporean ship, losing power as it departed from the Port of Baltimore and colliding with one of the bridge's support pillars.

Federal agents appeared to have boarded the ship on Monday morning to conduct a search.

President Biden and Maryland Governor Wes Moore (D) have expressed their commitment to hold accountable any entities potentially responsible for the bridge's destruction.
