The HIV epidemic Namibia is gradually being brouhgt under countrol as demonstrated by results in the preliminary report of Namibia Population-Based HIV Impact Assessment (NAMPHIA), a cross-sectional household-based survey that was conducted in 2017. Currently, it is estimated that about... 204,207 Namibians are living with HIV. According to the NAMPHIA preliminary report, HIV prevalence among adults aged 15-64 is 12.6% and the annual HIV incidence is 0.36%. This report, together with HIV programmatic data has show that Namibia is one of the few African countries to meet the 2015 Joint United Nations Program on HIV and epidemic globally by 2030.

prevent, diagnose, control or cure neglected diseases in low- and middle-income countries, making it the go...ld standard in tracking and reporting global funding for neglected disease R&D. This year’s report, the sixteenth overall, focuses on investments made in participants’ 2022 financial year (‘FY2022’) and, for the first time, adds comprehensive coverage of the product pipeline in each disease area.

The 2018–2030 Strategic Framework for Malaria SBCC guides countries and partners in strengthening capacities, refining strategies and sharing best practices, all of which... are aligned with the WHO Global Technical Strategy for Malaria. Despite progress, malaria continues to threaten billions of people, and success hinges on access to interventions and behavioural change. This framework emphasises advocacy, technical guidance and tools to ensure that SBCC is prioritised and resourced as an essential element in the global fight against malaria.

La primera versión de las Directrices es una recopilación de las recomendaciones existentes de... la OMS sobre la malaria y reemplaza a dos publicaciones anteriores de la OMS: las Directrices para el tratamiento del paludismo, tercera edición (en inglés unicamente), y las Directrices para el control de vectores del paludismo. Se seguirán revisando las recomendaciones sobre la malaria y, cuando proceda, se actualizarán en función de los últimos datos probatorios disponibles. Todas las recomendaciones actualizadas mostrarán siempre la fecha de la revisión más reciente en la plataforma MAGICapp. Con cada actualización, habrá también disponible en el sitio web de la OMS una nueva versión en PDF de las directrices unificadas que se podrá descargar.
Esta versión corresponde a la publicada en inglés el 13 de julio del 2021. La actualización se está traduciendo actualmente.

About one third of the population remains at risk of contracting P. vivax malaria, and 85% of P. vivax infections stem from reactivated latent parasites, leading to chronic ana...emia and increased morbidity and mortality. In addition to diagnostic tools that can detect the acute, blood-stage of P. vivax, new tools are needed to detect the dormant infections before they reactivate and contribute to morbidity and onwards transmission
