The World Health Organization (WHO) has made “enormous progress over the past three years” in fighting malaria. Deaths from malaria declined by over 200,000 to 781,000 in 2009. With funding, deaths could be halved by 2012 and even eliminated by 2015. Alas, at $1.8 billion, funding is less than a third of what’s required. “Rich nations need to do more.”
