They’ve fallen by an astonishing 98% since 2011.
The national malaria programme logged 3,300 deaths in 2011, and just 52 last year.

holy crap we might have found a drug that can treat prion diseases?? (phase 1 trial so maybe don’t get too excited, but considering how little we still know for certain about the prion protein and how and why it works, reaching the human testing phase is still incredible) https://www.broadinstitute.org/news/clinical-trial-prion-disease-drug-candidate-begins-enrolling-participants
