Malaria Deaths Underestimated

A recent study suggests that malaria deaths might be twice as high as actually reported. A report by the British medical journal Lancet suggest that there were 1.24 million deaths caused by mosquito borne diseases compared to only 655,000 reported by the WHO. Some of the report was compiled using estimates because of the lack of accurate and up to date information in many of the most malarial infested regions of the world.
