WHO: Malaria remains a serious threat in Africa

The World Health Organization says malaria remains a serious threat in Africa, with 95 percent of deaths occurring in the region.

WHO director general Tedros Ghebreyesus says despite the efforts to fight the disease, it continues to affect especially children and pregnant women. Maureen Ojiambo report
