According to Malaria Foundation International, www.malaria.org every 30 seconds, a child somewhere dies of malaria. Previously extremely widespread, the malaria is now mainly confined to Africa, Asia and Latin America. The problems of controlling malaria in these countries are aggravated by inadequate health structures and poor socioeconomic conditions. The situation has become even more complex over the last few years with the increase in resistance to the drugs normally used to combat the parasite that causes the disease. Over 300 million people are infected, more than one million children (under the age of five years) die by cause of Malaria each year.
