QUESTION:

What is there I can do to help them?

ANSWER:

Thank you for your concern! Probably the easiest and most direct way you can support the people suffering from malaria infections, especially in the developing world, is by helping to spread awareness about the impact of the disease and how it affects millions of people worldwide.

To help with these campaigns, you can also donate to organisations dedicated to fighting malaria, such as Malaria No More, or the Nothing But Nets campaign.

Finally, if you or people you know are going to be travelling to malarial areas, make sure that you are fully informed of the risks of malaria and take all the preventative actions that you should to make sure you yourself don’t get malaria as well!
