First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new approach to fight malaria: giving malaria medicine to everyone in a community, even if they feel fine. The goal was to remove the malaria parasite from the whole community, making it harder for mosquitoes to spread the disease. Over 3,300 people took part, including children and pregnant women, who are most at risk. Researchers tracked how many people had malaria and checked for side effects like stomach upset or dizziness.
