Context
The theme for Malaria Day in the Americas 2024, Expanding access to diagnostics and treatment for all, calls for action to make malaria treatment readily accessible to communities as a public good—free from geographic, financial, and other barriers. Engaging communities and all relevant stakeholders in a coordinated, ministry-led national alliance is essential. This effort should begin with ensuring that diagnosis and treatment services are available in all health facilities across endemic areas.
