Africa is gradually making strides in fighting malaria across the continent through the Accelerating Malaria Vaccine Introduction and Rollout in Africa (AMVIRA) initiative.
As Burundi, Chad, Central African Republic (CAR), Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and Niger are gearing up for the introduction and rollout of the malaria vaccines, the World Health Organization (WHO) with funding from PATH and partners convened stakeholders from these countries to learn from Benin, Ghana, Cameroon, Burkina Faso, Liberia, and Sierra Leone’s malaria vaccination experience and ensure adequate preparation towards new introductions and rollout across these countries.
