While Nothing But Nets works in Africa, the campaign is paying close attention to progress in other parts of the world, including Asia and the Americas. Tremendous progress towards malaria elimination in these regions serves as an example for Africa, where the burden of malaria is much greater.

Every year in early December, when most people are joyfully putting up their holiday décor, we are anxiously awaiting one thing: the release of the World Malaria Report, an annual catalogue by the World Health Organization of the latest results in the fight against malaria. This year’s report is evidence of the exceptional progress that has been made against the malaria since 2000. Here are five key highlights from this year’s report which came out today.

On January 24, 2015, The New York Times ran an important story about a small number of families in Africa who have been using insecticide-treated bednets for fishing, rather than for protection from malaria.
