Vector control has been heavily commoditized in recent years. Insecticides r widespread. Here Dr. @Drannewilson et al call for a return to approaches based on thorough knowledge of pathogen transmission, with both insecticide and non–insecticidal methods: journals.plos.org/plosntds/artic…

🦟🦟🦟 Scientists @Symbio_Vector @icipe led by @JeremyHerren discovered that a microsporidian, Microsporidia MB, can block transmission of #malaria to the #mosquito. Similar to #Wolbachia for #dengue, another #mosquito-borne disease. theconversation.com/breakthrough-m… via @TC_Africa

Thank you @Fredros_Inc for speaking on this present reality in #globalhealth and highlighting the terrible status quo. We have to acknowledge our role as funders in sustaining this unacceptable status quo, and then work to actively change.

A Kenyan based group of researchers have identified a new microsporidian infecting field-caught mosquitoes that inhibits the development of the the malaria parasite. bit.ly/3eXkYuf
Symbio_Vector retweeted
This single-celled microbe prevents mozzies from catching #malaria - but more research is needed to see if it could be a gamechanger in the fight against the parasite. 🔬 #endmalaria bit.ly/2X3oRGK
So excited to have our work featured in this podcast!
