More than 750 Million Anti Malaria Treatments for Adults and Children Provided Without Profit

Today is World Malaria Day. Malaria is preventable and curable, yet it is still one of the most deadly diseases in developing countries. Despite extraordinary progress in the fight against malaria over the last 15 years, the disease still claims the life of a child every two minutes. Since 2001, working with a range of organizations, the Novartis Malaria Initiative – one of the pharmaceutical industry’s largest access-to-medicine programs – has provided more than 750 million treatments for adults and children, without profit, to more than 60 countries, contributing to a dramatic reduction of malaria deaths in Africa.

It can be difficult to understand the devastating impact cancer has on a person’s life unless you’ve been there. It can be hard to “get it” if you’ve never helped a loved one through treatment. Reliable information when you are faced with big life altering decisions, like cancer treatment, is imperative to making your personal plan to fight cancer.
