Since 2000, the malaria mortality rate has fallen 51 percent among children under the age of five, but we still have our work cut out for us. As partners, we will encourage media leaders to sign on to support the campaign and rally their viewers to end malaria deaths.&quot;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: More exhibition space has been lined up for this year&#039;s DISCOP Africa, which is set to take place at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg from November 5 to 7.
