Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>The World Health Organization (WHO) and its partners say around 18 million doses of the world\u2019s first malaria vaccine will be delivered to 12 African nations by 2025.<\/p>\n

Among them are Malawi, Ghana and Kenya, where the Mosquirix vaccine has already been used in pilot schemes.<\/p>\n

With demand outstripping supply, priority will go to countries with the greatest need, and where maximum impact will be achieved.<\/p>\n

Mozambique and Sudan have been excluded because of their high vaccine drop-out rates.<\/p>\n

The WHO says the vaccine \u2013 developed by the British firm GSK \u2013 could save one life for every 200 children vaccinated.<\/p>\n

Malaria kills around half a million African children under five each year.<\/p>\n
