Le paludisme, appelé également malaria, ou « Mal‘aria », ce qui signifie « mauvais air
», est une maladie qui menace 3 milliards de personnes dans 99 pays dans le monde.1
Les personnes les plus vulnérables sont les jeunes enfants et les femmes enceintes,
car c’est parmi cette populatio...n que le risque de décès est le plus élevé.2
Au Bénin, le paludisme représente environ 41% des motifs de recours aux soins et

In  December  2018,  the President  launched  the  UHC  pilot  covering  four  strategically  selected  counties-Isiolo, Kisumu, Machakos and Nyeri. It isplanned that by the year 2022, all persons in Kenya will be  able  to  use  the  essential  services  they  need  for  their  health...  and  wellbeing  through  a single unified benefit package, without the risk of financial catastrophe. Essential health products are considered an integral part of UHC andare an indispensable element  for  delivery  ofservices  andare  also  a  requirement  for  qualitycare.  Despite  this realization,  a  review  of  the  UHC  pilot  in  September  2019  established  that  whereas  the Kenya  Medical  Supplies  Authority  (KEMSA)  was  able  to  fill  up  to  80%  of  pharmaceutical items,  the  order  fill  rate  for medical  supplies was  less  than  50%for  level  2  and  3  facilities and as low as 30%for level 4 and 5 facilities.

The evaluation combines both quantitative and qualitative anal...ysis. The findings confirm that the Programme has contributed to a significant increase in access to needed outpatient medicines in Ukraine. Further, while implementation was successful overall, uptake across regions was uneven. The report concludes by listing a number of policy options to support the sustainability and expansion of the Affordable Medicines Programme.
