Spotlight: Malaria in Africa | CDC Malaria: "Each year, April 25 is Africa Malaria Day. On that day in 2000, heads of state and representatives from 44 African countries met in Abuja, Nigeria, and signed a declaration committing their countries to halve malaria deaths in Africa by 2010. Africa Malaria Day serves to raise the world's awareness of this severe but preventable health problem."
