Patients tested for malaria this year from
January 1, 2021 until December 31, 2021 |
2021 Impact
Our current Malaria Center (MCI) tested 22,156 individuals for malaria. Over 82% (18,229 individuals) tested positive for malaria and were provided life-saving treatment. Of those testing positive, 995 were classified as severe cases and 280 were pregnant mothers. We also provided prevention education measures, hope, and healing to 12,579 households. We are proud of the work done in 2021 in the fight against malaria and look forward to the future families and lives we will impact in 2022 at our current Malaria Center and at our new Malaria Center (MCII) set to open in June 2022.
Despite the challenges faced by Healing Faith and the World as a whole, 2020 was a record setting year in terms of patients. The Malaria Center tested eighteen thousand five hundred thirty-five (18,535) patients for malaria with over eighty (80%) of those patients testing positive and receiving treatment. The team educated eleven thousand nine hundred and twenty-five (11,925) individuals as to the signs, symptoms, treatment and prevention strategies for malaria. |
