Malaria No More

Malaria is a disease that makes people really sick. It is caused by tiny bugs called mosquitoes who bite people and give them the disease. Malaria makes people feel very tired and achy, and can even make them very sick.

For a long time, a lot of people got malaria and it was very hard to stop it. But a bunch of really smart people decided they wanted to try to stop malaria from bothering people anymore! They decided to work together to think of ways to keep people safe from mosquitoes and the disease they carry.

They came up with some really good ideas. They made special nets that people can sleep under that keep mosquitoes away. They also made medicine that can help people who already have malaria feel better. They even made a special spray that can get rid of mosquitoes so they can't bite people anymore!

Because so many people are working together and using these ideas, fewer and fewer people are getting sick with malaria. They all hope to one day have no more malaria in the world, so everybody can be healthy and happy!
