Scientists at the University of Oxford have created a vaccine delivery system that could transform how we fight malaria worldwide. Their innovation tackles a major healthcare challenge – getting people to return for booster shots – by delivering both initial and booster doses in just one injection. This breakthrough comes at a critical time. Malaria still kills about 600,000 people each year, with children under five in Africa bearing the heaviest burden. Current vaccines require multiple clinic visits, which is often impossible for families in remote areas with limited healthcare access. “Reducing the number of clinic visits needed for full … Continue reading Oxford’s Single-Shot Malaria Vaccine Achieves 85% Protection Rate Using Microcapsule Technology
