Tens of millions of are absolutely convinced the the multiple prosecutions of et al. are politically motivated, with no basis in actual crimes, and should be thrown out immediately on that basis. Many of them affect to believe that any of a former should be off the table, because it’s “bad for ” or “like something out of a third-world country” or some other content-free criticism. Most would of course cheerfully see thrown in prison for no provable —but we know expecting consistency from them is a mug’s game.

Anyway. These people are enemies of the of . We owe their opinions no more consideration than we do the viewpoint of a -infected .

The distribution of insecticide-treated nets has been a successful prevention strategy, but have become resistant. Nets with dual active-ingredients can control such resistant vectors.

The Danger of ‘Invisible’ Across the U.S.

Opinion by Dan Greene, August 31, 2023

"Recently, many residents were disturbed to learn that a small, privately-operated bio lab in the town of was shut down by Fresno County Department of Public Health officials after they found that it had been improperly managing almost 1,000 laboratory mice and samples of infectious diseases including , , , , , , and . The lab was registered to a company called that sold a variety of medical testing kits, including for pregnancy and COVID-19, and it was likely storing disease samples for the purpose of developing and validating its testing kits. Government authorities are still investigating the company’s history, but it appears to have previously operated a lab in Fresno under the name Universal MediTech, where city officials flagged it for investigation regarding improperly stored chemicals.

"From what is publicly known, the Reedley lab should likely have followed proper biosafety practices to minimize the risks of an , and it apparently failed to do so. It could have caused illness, disruption, or even death among local communities and beyond depending on the circumstances of an outbreak. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention () maintains a system of four 'Biosafety Level' standards that are used worldwide for work with dangerous pathogens. Based on the pathogens that were being used at the Reedley lab, it probably should have followed Biosafety Level 3, which involves controlling the airflow inside the lab as well as a host of other practices, equipment, and facility design requirements.

"Yet, astonishingly, the U.S. government seems to not have even known that the Reedley lab existed until it was discovered by chance by Jesalyn Harper, an observant local city code enforcement officer—the only such officer working full-time in the entire city. Once discovered, the Fresno County and California Departments of Public Health found it to be in violation of local and state codes, including those for registering clinical labs and managing medical waste. Based on our reading of available information, it was likely also in violation of federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations for protecting workers from bloodborne pathogens. But these codes require proactive reporting, and the lab simply never reported any issues to regulators. In slightly different circumstances, it would likely have continued to operate unnoticed for a long time."

"Overall, our study suggests that the ongoing selective pressures exerted on parasite populations in Ethiopia by HRP2-based RDT diagnosis and ACT treatment might result in co-occurrence of diagnostic and drug resistance, representing a double threat to elimination."

Not good.

'Data from Uganda showed the emergence of partial resistance to artemisinins in multiple geographic locations, with increasing prevalence and regional spread over time.'

Not elections in Gabon. Not Ukraine. Not the crisis in Niger. Not protests in Syria.

Let alone the 1,323 children under 5 who died of yesterday.

No. This.

"Resistance selection in Uganda may also have been furthered by the use of monotherapy, with the artemisinin component unprotected by a long-acting partner drug. The use of artemisinin monotherapy to treat uncomplicated malaria has been discouraged, but the practice persists."

: Dramatic reductions in cases and deaths continue over five years with seasonal malaria vaccine-drug combination

📌 The final results of a landmark study confirm that the benefits of combining the RTS,S/AS01E (RTS,S) malaria with antimalarial drugs in settings of highly seasonal malaria transmission continue over five years.

📌 The vaccine-drug combination reduced malaria episodes, severe malaria, and deaths in young children by nearly two-thirds

Recent cases of locally transmitted malaria in MD, TX, and FL—as well as dengue in FL—illustrate the urgent need to expand our nation's capacity to prevent and respond to threats posed by mosquitoes, ticks, and other arthropod carriers of disease. ESA and the Vector-Borne Disease Network urge lawmakers to respond w/ robust investment in our nation's public health infrastructure. Preventing the next pandemic may depend on it.
