In Mali, more than 1,400 people died in 2021 from malaria. 34% of consultations in health establishments concern this disease. These figures were revealed by the national disease control program. It is on the sidelines of the 15th edition of World Malaria Day, coupled with the launch of National Malaria Week in Mali.
