The World Health Organization has recommended a shot called R21 to prevent the disease in children.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has endorsed a second malaria vaccine to protect children against the deadly disease, which killed 619,000 people in 2021.

Researchers say that the vaccine, known as R21, is easier to make than the first-approved malaria vaccine, called RTS,S, and will be cheaper per dose.

Vaccines are temporary. We need a final solution to the mosquito question.

science has demonstrated the inferiority of the mosquito race. they're a drain on our society and resources. I'm not afraid to stand up and say what i mean with respect to the mosquito question.

We need ephemeral vaccines so we require re-inoculation. It helps us weed out the hillbilly mah-raghts losers. It's like evolution but, well, obviously that already happened.
