Malaria is endemic and perennial in Ghana, with pronounced seasonal variations in the northern part of the country. The length of malaria transmission varies by geographic region, depending on the length of the dry season (December–March), during which there is a little transmission. With5,879,506 confirmed malaria cases, which account for 2% of global malaria cases and 3% of deaths, Ghana is among the 10 highest-burden malaria countries in the world.
In response to the call for the prevention and eradication of malaria, the VMC team in Ghana distributed over 600 treated mosquito nets to mothers during the Child Health Promotion Week in Ghana, in commemoration of the VMC 2022 malaria campaign focusing on the under 5 children in Ghana. Now, 600 mothers will worry less about their young wards being infected by mosquitoes because they have the protection of treated mosquito nets.
