As 2021 comes to a close, it’s fitting to highlight the accomplishments of the past year for this week’s Fist Bump. Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the PMI VectorLink Project continued to deliver high quality malaria vector control interventions. Between October 2020 and September 2021, the PMI VectorLink Project achieved the following:
- Almost 6 million structures sprayed
- Close to 21.9 million people protected by IRS, including
- ~3.5 million children under 5 protected by IRS
- 692 thousand pregnant women protected by IRS
- Almost 6.7 million ITNs distributed
- Over 13.3 million people protected by ITNs
These accomplishments would not have been possible without the work of everyone on the project. Congratulations, PMI VectorLink. We look forward to continuing positive results in the next year.
