Provide Various Forms of Medical Aid
Many pharmaceutical drugs that can treat malaria, worms, diarrhea, HIV/AIDs, or jiggers are not available locally in Africa. They have to be imported in. Low-income countries experience poor availability of essential medicines in health facilities, substandard-quality treatments, frequent stock-outs, and suboptimal prescription use of medicines.
Here are some of the statistics. In 2018, the WHO African region was home to 93% of malaria cases and 94% of malaria deaths. Diarrhea kills 2,195 children every day—more than AIDS, malaria, and measles combined; that is 32 school buses full of children that die from a preventable disease.
