Malaria kills over 500,000 people each year!
The mostly deadly animal to humans by far is the mosquito. One variety of mosquito transmits malaria causing 500,000 deaths every year: equivalent to one dead child every minute. However, a recent scientific report suggested Malaria could be wiped out as early as 2050 with the right tools, enough funding and sufficient political will power.
