Project narrative
On April 21, 2012, the Chinese Embassy donated 800,000 doses of Artequick, two motocycles, laboratory equipment, and office equipment to the Comoran Ministry of Health. This donation is planned to help eradicate malaria in the country and better prevent the disease in pregnant women and children under five years old. This donation was made as a part of the 2007 program initiated by the Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine (GZUCM) for the island of Moheli in the Comoros to eliminate malaria (see Record ID#409). Since the start of the program, the persistence of malaria has been significantly decreased.
