On Wednesday 20 August, we proudly hosted "Beyond the Bite – Tackling Mosquito-Borne Diseases" in partnership with the Malaria Synergy Program - Read about the event👉acreme.edu.au/world-mosquito-day-beyon...
#WorldMosquitoDay #mosquitoes

(1/6) As this year's #WorldMosquitoDay campaign comes to a close, we reflect on the global fight against malaria.

Ending malaria doesn't just involve science. Strong policies, cross-border collaboration, and sustained investment are essential. Let’s keep malaria on the global agenda.

Promotional graphic for a PATH webinar titled "Expanding the impact of chemoprevention." Date: Wednesday, September 10. Time: 7am PDT / 10am EDT / 2pm GMT / 5pm EAT.

We’re entering a new phase in #malaria prevention—but scaling impact requires overcoming challenges in policy, financing & delivery.

Supported by an unrestricted educational grant from GSK, this #PATHLiveForum explores the future of malaria chemoprevention: https://bit.ly/4fJSdSg

This week we are celebrating #WorldMosquitoDay! Hear from Transmission Zero researcher, Kirsty Moane, about how decoding mosquito immune responses in the midgut could pave the way for malaria-resistant mosquitoes and disrupt parasite transmission.

How AI could close the equity gap in healthcare | Malaria Consortium

🌍 On #WorldMosquitoDay, our member @malariaconsortium.bsky.social joined Makerere AI Health Lab to explore how AI can transform malaria diagnosis & surveillance.

Adapted to local contexts, innovations can close health equity gaps & strengthen systems. 👇

Computational tool helps scientists create novel bug sprays Rapid discovery of mosquito repellent compounds is enabled through a novel screening platform that combines both computational modeling and functional screening.

🦟 🌍On #WorldMosquitoDay: Vector-borne pathogens cause 17% of all infectious #diseases. In JBC, researchers described a screening platform to identify natural compounds that bind to #mosquito olfactory receptors and cause anosmia: ow.ly/Sr4650WJe7a.

I think it's a male, because it wasn't biting me. I think that's how it works.

Slightly different angle

🦟 🩸 #Mosquitoes kill over one million people annually, making them the world's deadliest animals.

One approach to curb the global rise in mosquito-borne diseases is to directly control the mosquito population—new methods are looking at new ways to sterilize mosquitos and even make their bite deliver vaccines to humans! 🦟 #WorldMosquitoDay

On this day 1897, it was discovered that malaria is transmitted through the bite of female Anopheles mosquitos 🦟 a discovery critical to our understanding of disease pathogenesis and prevention of malaria #WorldMosquitoDay #EndMalaria #GlobalHealth #ZeroMalaria

Quandry for #WorldMosquitoDay:-

Are we supposed to ignore them today or can we keep swatting them?

What is the protocol...

Illustration of a mosquito sitting on top of a clock. Headline: Yesterday's threat, today's solution. Get more of the information you need to keep you and your community safe from mosquitos.

🦟 #WorldMosquitoDay Mosquito season is not finished! Keep yourself & your family safe! Wear long sleeve & pants. Try Deet or Picardin. Or try Oil of Lemon-Eucalyptus, be sure to select EPA registered formulas NOT essential oils. Apply according to package instructions.

#Mosquitoes are on the attack.
They've bitten my arms & my back.
Though they MAY be "God’s creatures" —
These venomous leechers,
I’m tired of being their snack.

As malaria adapts, we need smarter solutions. 🔬

This #WorldMosquitoDay, we’re inspired by the power of innovation driving progress in the fight against malaria. New diagnostics, including AI-powered tools, are helping detect malaria faster and more accurately, even in remote settings.
