  • Summary

  • The World Health Organisation has recommended two licenced malaria vaccines. Those vaccines have been a long time coming - but are they the best?

    In this extended episode of the Johns Hopkins Malaria Minute, we ask:

    • Why is developing a malaria vaccine so challenging?
    • How does antigen variation play affect the effectiveness of malaria vaccines?
    • What are transmission-blocking vaccines (TBVs), and why haven't they gained much interest despite their potential?

    With Ilinca Ciubotariu, Qixin He and Giovanna Carpi.
