Africa: Experts Unveil New Malaria Testing Kits

Newly developed malaria testing technologies could help shift diagnoses from the current hit or miss management to treating only the confirmed cases.

The Rapid Testing Kits, of which several brands are on display at the ongoing international malaria conference in Nairobi, take less than five minutes to diagnose a case.

The kits which are already being tested by the World Health Organization in five countries can be widely used at community level, requiring little skills and no expensive storage systems.
