Kenya has reduced malaria prevalence by a third over the past decade as it presses towards its goal of cutting cases and deaths by 90 percent by 2030.
The latest annual report by the World Health Organisation (WHO) shows that malaria prevalence fell from eight percent in 2015 to 5.6 percent in 2025 – a 2.4 percentage point drop, representing the most significant shift in the country’s malaria burden in a generation.
