"At the end of June, the World Health Organization certified China as having
eliminated malaria. The announcement may have gotten a little drowned out by
the mass spectacles surrounding the Communist Party’s 100th birthday, but make
no mistake: going from 30 million cases annually to zero really is a reason to
be cheerful.
There are a lot of places that would like to emulate China — malaria is one of
the top public health threats around the world, with 200 million cases and
400,000 deaths per year. And while a number of other countries are malaria-free
— most recently El Salvador, Algeria, Argentina, Paraguay and Uzbekistan — many
more are eager to know how the Chinese did it."
