New research offers a more precise way to map malaria transmission across Senegal.
Using anonymised health-facility data, environmental factors and travel times, researchers created 1 km-resolution maps showing how malaria risk varies between urban and rural areas.
The findings could help governments target bed nets, treatments and healthcare resources where they are most needed.

An Invasive #Mosquito Is Spreading With Alarming Speed, Threatening #Africa’s Cities
The #malaria-carrying mosquito is resistant to all #insecticides.
Genomic analysis of the mosquito, called Anopheles stephensi, using specimens collected from 10 countries, showed those found in Africa had genetic resistance to all of the chemicals currently used in spraying campaigns and other mosquito-control efforts, meaning those insecticides will not kill it.

Climate change is poised to expose more people to malaria in cooler parts of Africa by the end of the century, with cases potentially rising as much as 20% in coastal southern Africa, according to a new study. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2026/08/04/climate-change/climate-change-africa-malaria-map/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #climatechange #climatechange #africa #malaria #mosquitoes

Here on mastodon, every day, there are dozens of posts about the evil of AI data centers
without getting into a debate about how evil AI DCs are, I would say that in terms of real human suffering, today, malaria has to be 10 or 100x worse then datacenters
and do we hear anything about malaria ?

Ancient DNA reveals malaria killed the Medici brothers, not poison
A new DNA study of two Renaissance members of the Medici family has confirmed malaria, not poison, killed Grand Duke Francesco I de’ Medici in 1587. The research also found a previously unknown strain of the parasite behind the deadliest form of malaria, giving scientists new clues about how the disease spread across Europe...

"Dr Simon Scofield, a senior lecturer at Cardiff University, said: “We found that a 6% catnip oil was just as effective [at repelling mosquitos] as Deet, and the 2% catnip oil was only marginally less effective than that."

These results are difficult to explain. How can a malaria-primed memory T-cell pool depleted of Tregs be less effective upon recall than either the same pool containing Tregs or even purified memory Tregs alone?
