Purpose of review: Malaria cases and deaths decreased from 2000 to 2015 but remain increased since 2019. Several new developments and strategies could help reverse this trend. The purpose of this review is to discuss new World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines and recent research on malaria prevention in children.
Recent findings: Fifteen countries have now rolled out seasonal malaria chemoprophylaxis (SMC) in children at highest risk for severe malaria, and new WHO recommendations provide more flexibility for SMC implementation in terms of target age groups, geographic region, and number of cycles. Recent studies confirm that malaria burden in school aged children, and their contribution to transmission, is high. New guidelines permit expanded chemoprevention options for these children. Two vaccines have been approved for use in malaria endemic countries, RTS,S/AS01 E and R21/Matrix-M. Additionally, pyrethroid-chlorfenapyr bed nets are being deployed to combat resistant mosquitoes.
Summary: While challenges remain in malaria control towards elimination, new guidelines and recently approved vaccines offer hope. Monitoring for continued vaccine and chemoprevention effectiveness, and for possible epidemiologic shifts in severe malaria presentation and deaths as additional prevention efforts roll out will be paramount.
