NEW: Oxford R21 malaria vaccine receives @WHO recommendation paving the way for global roll-out.
The vaccine developed by Oxford & @SerumInstIndia demonstrates a high efficacy.
The jab could reduce over half a million malaria-related deaths annually.

Our malaria vaccine - co-developed with @SerumInstIndia - can be manufactured at mass scale and modest cost, enabling as many as 100s of millions of doses to be supplied to African countries which are suffering a significant malaria burden.

The researchers behind Oxford's malaria vaccine share why the jab could be a potential game-changer in Africa.

In 2017 @WHO launched the E-2020 initiative to support 21 countries in their efforts to get to zero #malaria cases by 2020.
Today we report on the progress and the exciting addition of a new group of 25 countries w/the potential to #EndMalaria by 2025.
