7:39 am
a team of people who are advocating for we have to take malaria seriously. and if we have the resources we can beat malaria and maybe there's a whole draw the line against malaria campaign and you brought together so many well known names. i'm going to share your space, your time mathias are with them because they again, they emphasize why we need to beat malaria. let's take a look. i'm over 6 i is and i, and you've had a personal experience with malaria. it was a super of old kind of really made me appreciate what people are going through and they say every 60 seconds a child dies for malaria. it's totally preventable. maria felt that everything was her then that i qualified. what i wanted to know jumped on to percentage of my going to button until, but they were not able to travel proposal. malaria i had malaria, it was really, really hard at that fibro. keep them going for 24 hours for 3 days in a row. close a really tough stone. i've been on
7:40 am
a global mission to en millerio after losing my housing. i am on the thing that malaria is not something that people should have to die. though with this film i read all young people to be inspired and you know, understand that they are the ones who can lead to change all about you guys on both mattie and sarah. both nodding as are watching now. other comb, team advocates talking about malaria. sorry you are an explorer, you are a mountaineer from the heights of your career. what are you able to bring to the movement? i think it's a voice. i suddenly found myself on the 16th of may 2019 with a voice and an art decided to use it for good. and what excites me about the possibility of ending malaria is the opportunity, but africa has. we have the youngest population in the world. how are we going to make sure that we are set them up as leaders of tomorrow as well? and i think that he, eradicating malaria today gives them an optimal position to actually leave the
7:41 am
world. so i'm excited to be part of this movement. i'm exciting to lend a small voice to make it possible in a way and metal you bought your talents as a director to malaria malaria campaign. have a look here on my laptop. so let's take a look at this, who i dare to play for thee with david fashion? doing pretty well beyond getting the celebs to rainy advocate, the bt malaria. what did you get out of this film? what are you hoping? the other thing everybody will get out of oh, you know, does all the, you know, brings more awareness to, to malaria and to, you know, the, the place that people are going through and how we can all work towards, you know, our generation, especially this new young generation road towards ending missouri. um we have the tools um, you know, we have the boys, we have social media. you know,
7:42 am
we have so many different outlets. so we can, you know, spread the message. so, you know, with this film and, you know, with the voices of our, other in a malaria ambassadors and champions are all of us coming together and, you know, trying to amplify this message as much as possible. you know, so we can kill the steroids. these are ready and sorry, actually so much. sorry. go ahead. you have to lastly, i just wanted to add to can i be passionate about what mandela said. he said the power is in your hands. ah, nobody's going to come to and rescue us. we each have a responsibility to end malaria, so every voice comes and we can draw the line and we can end malaria and is excited to be part of that by sopa spending. tyra and matching, thank you for joining us on the screen. thank you. let's take a closer look at the science and issues behind eradicating malaria. as a global and strategist, the most incredible legacy that i can pass on to my children and grandchildren is not be what populate eguard edition might be home living article because that
7:43 am
learning is equally better. do a live video solutions to fight wonderful entities. it doesn't really is not just a single disease, is equivalent to under different scenarios. oh, for sure. and i'm calling to go. environmental and economic injustice and eloquence . why is it so difficult to and malaria? thought andrea bossman is director of the w a chose global malaria program, and thought to faith as yet is chad, the malaria immunology and fax, knology, department, and imperial college london. they have answers don't, is they get to see a doctor fe festival. i'm just gonna remind people where across the world, we still have prevalence in malaria, you have a look on my laptop, doctor faith, you already know this, but for our audience. so we go from south america, through the african continent, and then all the way through to papua new guinea. and you can look at this area,
7:44 am
you just got, oh, it's the tropics. what is so difficult not to faith about just eradicating malaria . it used to be in a more parts of the world, but now it is stuck in that band of the tropics, but typically, in africa was the problem. the problem, the problem, thank you for having me on your show. the problem in those, in the tropics, is really the climate. the climate is favourable and conducive to mosquitoes. and so it's difficult to eradicate malaria because the climate supports the mosquitoes that transmit the parasite. that's why it's still there. dr. andrea, when we talk about malaria, when we're trying to encourage people to take it seriously, we often you statistic about how many children die from malaria. what is it about young people and malaria that makes them so vulnerable? yeah, the children,
7:45 am
unfortunately have not been exposed when they start to grow to these said deadly but a site and they phase unfortunately, also several of them disease like no more near that mandatory issue which are also very common in the place where there is malaria. so by getting a very early, mainly knock elation, sometimes even tensor or 20 bad night. they is suffered and we lose a lot of children is very young age. and this is very, really unacceptable because we have today that means to prevent the death from malaria. yeah, that's a faith and that's, and i, at we have a lot of people who are watching right now on youtube who say that they've, they've had malaria. but i'm going to share with you a few of the thoughts as well. ah, cachimba, since the in uganda the illness has increased this season. have you seen that thought to face? are you seeing a bigger increase in learning more people being impacted?
7:46 am
and yes, so once we have what's happened is that because of coverage and interventions, her services are broken down and are the interventions for malaria control have been interrupted. and so, yes or we have seen more debts because over because of covered and, and malaria is going up. and in fact, malaria has been going up for a few years. and in the sense that although we have many control tools there, the effect that they've had seems to have flattened out. and so malaria is still very much a present problem. dr. andrea, at please go, had you go fast and i'm going to go to youtube. second, cuz joshua wants to say something to you, go ahead and read. yeah. unfortunately not only the measures have been interrupted. people also had where afraid to go to their headset. this is,
7:47 am
they were afraid to also be in contact with other covered cases. and not only so the bread necessary boucher and the medicine distributions were partly affected . but also people were afraid to go to the health services and we have a still more than half of the b bowl, which don't get the essential bed nets that they need or they don't get a rapid test, the order and effective medicines when they are sick and this is really very, very bad because with less than $1.00 we can save a life in malaria. on like in the us, that i'm just gonna bring in, joshua joshua here, just talks about collaborative effort that we need people to get together to talk about malaria. and in to find resources, you say says that it involves educating everybody. and also producing more mosquito nets, this feels like then the, the mill road. i remember when i visited nigeria and i was
7:48 am
a little girl and i was my grandma and he's been met with mosquito nets. are we still at the mosquito next stage? faith? yes. so mosquito nets are still very good for preventing for reducing transmission there, impregnated they've got some drug on the bed. net so that when mosquitoes land on the bed next they're wrapped and they're, they're killed. and they protects both protect children and they protect adults from malaria. so yes, bed notes are still really important and should be used where possible. i'm thinking about covered and i know you talked about covered and the impact it had on the momentum that was have being had for tweeting malaria. but there are 2 ways to look at co because it's slowed down the way that we are tackling malaria. but it also gave us a template for how a huge region and the wall can get together, find the result it if they want to. if they find an illness important enough and
7:49 am
solve an issue very quickly, faith, you start andro, you pick up. i couldn't agree more coverage taught us that people we can come together as a global society and put in the resources required to solve an urgent problem. and, and you know, developing a vaccine for malaria. it's not as simple as it is for cove it because of my way of malaria. parasite is much more complex, but with good funding and good resources and commitment, political will have funding resources and about money. because we did talk about money, they just need to find money at the a, hugh and then we eradicate malaria across the world. yeah, i think the science has been really a big move out of the advance that we had with coffee, that they are study,
7:50 am
vaccine and development has been extraordinary the development of test, the new magazines. and clearly the society as a whole is seeing a cove. it as a major threat to the whole globe, which we don't have yet for malaria. malaria still affects a lot children, childrens in the remote order laid as a with don't have unfortunately, a voice said that parents leave in communities reach out a little isolated and they have less voice than to make malaria as a big political commitment for, for the fight globally, so that, that as something that the economy doesn't lead their way and, and clearly we should take some of the good lessons from the fight against cove it . so i know you mentioned the vaccine for malaria,
7:51 am
which is the biggest news for malaria last year. i'm not sure that everybody saw that news, or it kind of was buried cuz we were so focused on coven at the time. here's a headline. i want to share with you. scientists hail historic malaria vaccine approval. but point to chinese ahead. let's start with 1st unpacking this vaccine. what are we looking at? this is your life work here, dr. fame? so i'm going to put up on the screen so people will understand what it is that we're talking about. this new vaccine that was revealed last year. it is called r t. s. s. or must grex thought the faith did i say that, right? yes, you did. all right. recommended for use for children from last year and it provides about 30 percent reduction in severe malaria. so now that we've all understood vaccines so much better because of our panoramic,
7:52 am
i look at 30 percent and say that's not really a vaccine as it dr. faith. yes. then no. yes. because and the other way one can look at it is to say that for every 10 people that have malaria, the vaccine will prevent severe illness in sri. so is it was saving those 3? absolutely. however, is it good enough? would you like to save more? yes, and so i think that we have to take the vaccine as it is and, and it's going to have an impact to when you think about the millions who have malaria, we will save hundreds of thousands by vis maxine, but should we stop working on it no, we continue to try and improve it so that we can improve that efficacy to what we have for the coven, vaccines, 90 percent, and over. and i, would you be, i to explain how the vaccine works for i suppose the vaccine is in
7:53 am
helping the body to eliminate the blood forms of the parasites. and it is called a leaky vaccine is not, doesn't give a full protection, but it can reduce it the number of acute illness, the number of severe anemia, the number also of c via forms and therefore prevents that. it is currently being looked in 3 counties on a large scale, and that potential is really to save tens of thousands of lives in africa. you should be used with other methods that are working very well, like get access to diagnosis and treatment and use of insect is i t that net so dot to face. i'm thinking about this faxing that 3 out of 10 people. it will really help reduce the seriousness of malaria. so it's a start,
7:54 am
it will save lives. is it being produced or over to him though, i showed that that part of the globe all over the tropics, so everybody can access it right now. because remember i showed you that headline, there was a problem, there. is this one of the problems, the availability of the vaccine? this is absolutely one of the problems and that one of the challenges is, who will manufacture the vaccine? who will pay for the vaccine in western countries when there's an illness, for example, covered government step up and they are prepared to pay for the vaccine. and so manufacturers are willing to put in the investment required to produce the vaccine . and fortunately for malaria, this isn't the case, we do not have guarantees of who will buy the vaccine. and this is where because african domains, let's be, let's be less he kind it up because why, why do we not know? how can i produce it wisely?
7:55 am
but is immediately one saudis dike every minute. our african governments need to step up to, to pay for the vaccines. that's what needs to happen. thought andre, is this a conundrum that we're gonna get stuck in my ear? we, we have a way of saving lives from malaria, but we don't have the money to produce the vaccine. that's unethical. surely. yeah . at the moment, gary, which is one of the funding mechanisms to fund the vaccine for many countries have mobilized 160000000 to allow the initial production and the scale of the vaccine. there is a plan already by end of the 2022 to extend the use of the vaccine in the 3 countries which have been at the moment using that in only pilot areas. and progressively, the company is going to expand the production. but still,
7:56 am
we will have the probably from 3 to 5 years, a situation where the demand will be certainly much higher than the available supply. does that make his theory? us faith? absolutely. i think we in africa, we feel the pain of malaria, as we've seen in the program. we are the ones that suffer all the economic losses that malaria brings. and here we have a potential solution and we're not able to roll it out. i think it's unacceptable. it's weird is like a, a bit of sweet part of the program in that there is a way to save so many lives. but there isn't a way to get those resources yet. do you remember we asked the very beginning of the show? is it possible to eradicate malaria in our lifetimes? dr. faith, is it?
7:57 am
and i'm a strong believer that it absolutely is. it requires commitment. it requires resources, it requires determination. but if you can imagine that people are soon booking holidays to go to the moon, i'm how is it that we can't prevent children from, from, from dying from a mosquito bite or mosquito borne disease? i think it's cloudy, poly vento survival, good final dot andrea, in our lifetimes eradicate malaria, gone no way existing in the world possible. yeah, the vision is to have a world 3 of malaria. and while it's still difficult to put a date for these, so i think there will be so much investment in transformative towards, in mobilizing results in mobilizing the community that, that is going to be achievable. so get to having talked to andrea said, happy dots of faith, metty and sar as well. he kicked off the program,
7:58 am
your questions, your comments in the you chip section as well, and be careful. don't keep getting malaria out there. i know i see what you've been writing on the chip comments come here on my laptop because this is the call to action. if you are interested in malaria, how to eradicate the how to stay safe and keep yourself safe as well. delta 0, malaria dot, or had 0 malaria dot org. thanks the comments and questions. i really appreciate them. have a great weekend. i see you next week. take. ah . ah,
7:59 am
now which is 0. where every oh, these men are survivors of coven? 1946 year old i've told one year is a limousine driver. he's the only one here who needed to go to hospital when he became ill in early march. the breathing pro won't be abandoned 40 november. so deep is a 34 wheel drive or for atari family, and he tested positive my body of very well. that'll be a small problem you out of the health officials say the rate of new infections has slowed. the goal here is to conduct a broad survey to better understand transmission and asymptomatic cases, which in turn could help policy decisions in the future. so it would be easier for us to inform the decision making on what to do next. the goal now is to increase
8:00 am
testing and contact tracing. the government provides free testing and medical treatment for those who need it, while campaigns to raise awareness continue coveted beyond. well, he's taken without hesitation for him. died for the power that finds out well long as you babies were dying. i did not think it's neglected. babies to deck people and power investigates, exposes and question. so the use and abuse of power around the globe on out there with .
