Children are the first victims of malaria
This shot was taken as I was leaving the community health centre in Karan. These are the kids of the village on their way home from school.
Malaria is the number 1 killer of children in Africa, killing some 3,000 per day, and with 400 to 500 million malaria cases every year only 80 million ACT based treatments were provided worldwide in 2006.
Many lives could be saved with a wider spread use of the ACT based drugs.
